well everyone ive had this beast for almost a month now and he is doing fantastic!!! he still has a ways to go to put on more size but as much as he eats i doubt it will take long lol I left my 8 yr old son in charge of feeding him while i was away at work for two weeks. Which consisted of nitecrawlers and krill every day and 1 lil mouse once ore twice a week just to get him eating since that was all i could get him to eat during the couple of days i was home. But my son forgot all about the krill and when i got home this guy was extremely hungry lol so as of the last couple of days he gets fed twice a day; 1-2 nite crawlers and 2 4" frozen krill squares. today for his second meal i thawed out talapia fillets and cut it into a few section. then i stuffed some massivore pellets into the chunks hoping i can get him use to the smell and taste of pellets:) and to my luck he ate the entire fillet and about 7-8 massivore pellets:headbang2:headbang2 So i can tell you that he doesnt have a sunken belly or is starving by any means :ROFL: I dont intend starving him to pellet train him so im gonn try and get him use to anything that hits the water as food, hoping i can get him to hit pellets:popcorn::popcorn: So here are a few pics i took of him. Hopefully i can get him to fill out and put on more height.

Thank you Forrest:) I agree, once he puts on nuchal hump then he'll be pimpin. I tried to pull his colors out with my camera but still not as clear. i uploaded a video but it looks all washed out:wall: I am thinking of trying to pair him out with my Gorillus Blue Female:naughty: I know, I know... but hey if it works just think;) i will attempt it next time i get home from work as this time is gonna be a short one. i already put her in the tank so i know what im looking forward to:grinno::popcorn::popcorn:
 
How long is he now?
 
Great looking dovii. Can't believe he still has all his teeth after seeing all those rocks in there. Mine is constantly breaking his off from rearranging his tank.
