Any other Achilles owners/progression pics

[Holsteiner]

Here is the most recent pic of my guy at 7 1/2". Pic underneath was when he was about 5" or so...wish I had pics from the first day I got him about 3 years ago ;-) you can definitely see how his shape has changed over the years. Would love to see other peoples pics!

Absolutely stunning fish! The top fish to have in a aquarium IMO.

 

[Holsteiner]

I totally agree Dmorty...have always wanted one ;-)

My LFS has small ones for $85...too bad i only have 4ft 60 gallon

 

[Holsteiner]

Good price, I'm sure you'll get one someday ;-)

They were eating pellets too. It was very tempting. Anyway, your achilles is nice!!!

I know there are some others out there with really nice tangs...let's see those pics ;-)

I can kind of play ! I have progression from dd purchase to about a month ago - time frame of about 9 months

Real eye pleaser. No pun intended.

Anyone else? I know there are people on here with some beautiful tangs they've had for quite a while ;-)

Seriously, let's see some more. These fish have such a low survival rate that seeing long term success can teach us a thing or two.

So can anybody tell us your secret of success in keeping these beauties...
I have always wanted one, but just afraid of losing him....

I think preemptive qt and a ich free high flow system -

I have qt'ed 3 achillies and 1 hybrid so local reefers they seem to be pretty harder but can be stubborn on 'prepared' food - so I would suggest small, see it eat at lfs or DD
