    Default Solid Red Snakeskin

    Been 2 months and time 4 an update. They are a little banged up from their recent move. I swapped tanks around, so they are in a blue tank. Some of them are starting to get striations in the face. Not adding any red enhancing foods yet, still growing them out.

    They look really great Eddie! There's one in particular that's really catching my eye! I bet you can guess which one.

    Nice work.

    Best,

    Thanks Ricardo! These pups are really catching up with my Lago Solomon X Turqs. Both sets of fish were from T-AQUA, Watanabe is the breeder.

    Great eye size in proportion to the body, and the shape of that body is incredible!
    You've done a good job on raising them, I really can't wait till they colour up, I bet they will be a stunner

    All the best,

    Nice Fish Eddie. That first picture is interesting I've never seen stress bars like that before. It looks like the bars are intersecting rather than straight up and down, is that normal for young ones?
