1 3/16 inch growth in one month is awesome. I don't think anyone could ask for more than that. Great job.

Here is my 4 week update.All of these guys are all about the same size (4" +)so far. Everything has been going well with them. Eating real well and healthy. I think I am going to slow down a bit on there feedings as they same to be getting a bit too fat. I do not want to do any damage which could hinder them in the long run. I have been keeping thing consistent with maintenance, w/c's and feedings. I am posting a day one picture at which time they were 3". Today they are 4 3/16" TL. I have been increasing the Ms/TDS for about a two weeks now.I started to add some color enhancer to the food last week. The shape looks pretty bad in the photo when he was out of the water, but they all are developing great shape.I hope you like their progress

Looking great! I can see a bit of a double chin starting. How may feedings were you giving? Great growth! Seems that we are all about at the 1" monthly mark.
Best wishes!

Looks like they're growing like weeds. Are they all about the same, or is this the biggest?

Chad, I have been feeding 8 to 10 x a day, 5 x my hi pro home mix. I am cutting back on the protein to 50 % on average.I will feed my home mix 3 x day and flake, pellets 3 x daily for the next week and see. The angle of the picture was poor as it was taken on top of the tank at 5'. No doubt they could loss a bit of weight, but so could Iavionics30

Chris, I measured three today and they were with in an 1/8". All the sizes are real close. He was the second largest, first was flipping too much and I did not want to injure him.The smallest is probably 3 7/8".Scribbles

Thanks
that's a good size by the way! keep up the good work..
Awesome job! Not all mine are the same size. Got a couple slow growers.
Everyone's getting really good growth! I think we're going to need micrometers in the end to find a winner.
I agree, AMAZING work Kenny, they look fantastic. Nice big and healthy fish.
Take care,
Eddie
I only feed them 6x today and they look at me, LoL. I think they are going to make a run for the freezer themselves, LoL.avionics30
That's about where I am. 5 feedings. Two on an automatic feeder the other three home made mixes.
LoL. Marvin,i could not find my calipers so i just improvised.MRQuad

Steve-O, no doubt this is going to be close, it is going to come down to some real tough gradingcalihawker
