Looks like they are doing great! How much longer are you going to keep them in the tank they're in?

Thanks! They will be staying in the 250 for quite a while...I am going to start adding some marco dry soon. They have been with me for 3.5 months and I am still doing a wc every 2 weeks and that requires removing the pvc and cleaning everything..with the marco in the tank that is going to be much tougher to do so I am just moving real slow with them...

I didn't realize they were in a 250. You are doing an excellent job with them. They look like they are very healthy and growing nicely.
 
Ya. 76. Koji is keeping them at 72 also. Yours definitely grew faster than mine. I wonder if that's the temp, or the antibiotics. I'm just seeing black speckling now on tail. But absolutely healthy and free from infection and bloat. I spoke to Karen last night. You can call me I'll fill you in.
 
Finally caught up on this thread - I went through all 156 pages over the past week or so. Quite a story to follow. Anyhow feels good to be caught up and will continue to follow along. Those personatus look really cool - looking forward to seeing them grow up!

thanks trig...
 
Happy to say the Navarchus is finally beginning to show adult coloration on her face! About time...
but she would not let me get a pic...
this is really the best pic I got of her...lemon peels always look so goofy....

Ken,

Thanks. She has refused to change her coloration for quite a while. I have had her for over 2 years and she really was tiny back then. However, she suffered from a horrible case of lymph. That led me to removing her 13 times over a few months to scrape her sites. She really hated me for a long time and, lol, I think she probably still does.
Really looking forward to seeing her change.

Wow, hard to believe 2 years old at that size!

Hopefully she will grow to love you! (Until she becomes a teenager anyway).

:)
