A few more.....
I'd like to fist say that I am sorry for not staying on top of updates. I won't make any excuses, but my time has not been my own for the past couple of months. To all of you that have been very regular with your updates, WELL DONE!
So, the fish....
No huge changes to report. I did pull the daddy of the group to get a measurement tonight and was disappointed to observe that my 6" caliper was malfunctioning. When I spread it all the way open, the readings were way off. It's digital and I think the battery is dead. Anyway, With the caliper open 100%, the fish barely fits, so I'd fare a guess at 6" +. LOL! Until I get that fixed, no measurements.
The fish are doing great, even with my crappy schedule. As you can see, a few of the weekly water changes slipped and I am about 5 behind. To date, these guys haven't skiped a beat. Still pigs, still fat, still happy. Their feedings also declined to twice daily. Both feedings are beefheart. Their patterns are a bit more pronounced now and most of the patterns are consistent throughout all six fish.
Anyway, took some shots tonight! Enjoy!
Best wishes!
