    I've always believed that feeding for fast growth is likely to result in heaviness in the area of the chin. I think your fish look just fine.

      Sorry Adam, quick hijack lol
      Liz by "chin" do you mean where the gills attach to the upper chest area.
      BTW, I agree, you fish look very nice and proportionate mate. Good job

        I love the black tips on your guy. He may not be the biggest (yet) but he sure is pretty!

            No, I should have said heavy chest. The area just under the mouth.

                Thanks all for the kind words.

                Here's the biggest one up against a ruler and some 1/4" graph paper, a little over 2" SL.
