Whoooah ..... Those grew up from the first pic ?? Good job.. What did you feed them??

[Lisachromis]

Looks good to me.

[RookieCop]

Thanks! I feed them 4-5 times a day with tetra bits, frozen bloodworm and beefheart. Daily 50+% water change and every 3 days I wiped the inside of the tank. Bloating/internal was my only issue during grow-out which cured by epsom salt and oxy-tetra. Other than that I never really had any major problem. I owe this to everyone in this forum, there is no secret to it. I just followed what experienced keepers did.

Great job Rook!
Thanks for sharing, I wish more people would post then and now pictures. I love seeing how they look as juvies and then when older. What size were they in Nov and what size are they now?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks all! They were 2.5 back in Nov, now they are about 5.5 - 6.

Great job, keep up the great work.

They are all looking good but that orange one in the first pic of them "grown up" is awesome!

Good job, those look nice and fat. How big did they get and where did you get them from?
