    update 1/21/08

    Hi Everyone Here is an update. I tell u these guys r growing like weeds! I feed b/h @ least 5x's a wk and fbw's, cbw's tetrabits, brine shrimp(frozen), and assorted flake food. There r @ least 3 this big. The tape measure is touching his lips so he is almost 4"'s long. I change water everyother day, and scoop out the poop 3-5x's per day. They keep me busy, but I love them totally. Can't help but take care of them.

      Eileen,

      Wow you are doing a great job growing out those fish...I can't believe that they have grown that much in such a short period of time...just goes to show what good water quality and food will do for you...

        I can't believe how much they have grown myself. I am totally amazed. Of course that guy in the pic, his name is Al because he was the biggest of the bunch and the ''boss''. So i decided to name him after "Al Sabatta" of Simply. Now, i have a hard time trying to pic him out. But, he is still "The Boss" so i don't have too hard a time. I tramatized him a little tho. He is hiding behind the sponge now and won't come out. I am sure he will be ok tho
