Hes got the tiniest chimple and a bit of ich, but those will clear up quick. I also really like how he has a goofy iris on his left eye. He wouldnt let me photograph it, busy staring at me with the good one. I think it makes him look awesome though. I'll try to get a pic of the eye for ya. Im going to be giving him more time to rest and settle in before I give him a serious photoshoot. I am very excite!

Was there a cohab experiment that I didn't hear about?? I want to know details!
 
Is that an elong or a Spilopluera? Cool fish, in pretty rough shape, almost looks like a tiny bit of ick as well, nothing clean water and a good diet can't fix.

Glad you found a good home for the caribes man, about time they sold! Do your rhom is on the 125 and this guys in the 90?!

:popcorn:

Yeah hes in rough shape but nothin i cant fix. The cariba were traded for this guy. Hes a 5.5" manueli. Even has his green tiger colors still. He should be losing it in the next inch or so but i really like his pattern now.

Yeah bubbas in the 125 and the manny is in the 90.
 
He should keep the coloring for a good while. The one I sold to nando still had his bronze and green sheen at 7", and still even had the tiger striping. I don't it starts to fade until around the 8" mark IMO. Either way, he looks awesome. Glad you were able to get the cariba to someone else on the other forum and get the manny, it all ended up working out well in the long run.
 
Im planning on keeping him as long as possible and i really like the tiger pattern. So as far im concerned he can keep it as long as he wants lol.

I was really surprised you sold Nando your manny. He was/is a beautiful manny. I figured you would have sold off the elong. Everyone has different tastes though.

Oh ohhh...yeah sorry, misread. i like the manueli's prehistoric patterns. I'm anxious to see a shot of this iris..
 
Yeah, I know. I 100% preferred the manny's looks, but I've never owned a fish with the attitude of my elong. He's like a pissed off dovii, I can't explain it.

My hope is that nando keeps him either for life or for long enough that I get a spot open that I can buy him back and then keep him. I think he's going to be one of the bigger ones out there.
