Um, as a redneck, i prefer my BJ (beef jerky, lets not think dirty) over steak any day of the week. And i like riding ATVs and shooting stuff.

Jokes. Im not actually a redneck... Im actually quite white. And i would take a steak. Unless it was turkey jerky, a big bag of it...

But yeah, weird fish and all that...


If money cant buy happiness, that why do I need a job? I mean, I should be getting these fish free, since I don't have to pay for happy...

Terrible jokes. Speaking as a true Southerner (yes that's capitalized!) You should never choose jerky over a steak. Ever!



Mike, it could be worse, he could eat only frozen or live! They are mostly herbivorous though aren't they? Could explain things.

Most descriptions I have found are either omnivore or herbivore. seems to be about a 50/50 on this. I think Ill pick up some vegie pellets today and see how that goes for a treat. He eats the NLS Thera A with garlic like a starving maniac which is a good thing.
Yea I had a Lyonsi that wanted nothing to do with pellets. took 10 days of feeding nothing else to get him off the frozen blood worms.

Just a few updated pictures. After this I'll update monthly.

Man he looks good. Makes me wish that I had the space when there was an eight inch male at the spring auctions, some lucky person got it for 3 bucks because nobody wanted the beast.

 

[mikem691]

Just the monthly update for anyone following. Not much change except a little growth.

 

[Nils]

He looks good! Also looks like he put on some size, keep doing what you're doing!

 

[mikem691]

Thanks Nils. Hes starting to get some length to his dorsal fin also.

How Fast does he grow? Isn't Argentea one of the faster growers of Veija? Or whatever genus its in, as that whole group seems to have like 4 binomials apiece.

Small update
this guy is hopefully going through a phase. He's being really skittish and acting like I have oil and a frying pan when I approach the tank. Hoping he comes out of it. I had a midevil a while back that never did. I have no tolerance for that so we will see.

 

[Brookster123]

I hear you mike. Hidey fish are lame..

He's doing better. I think its just phases they go through. Now he's destroying the sand and up rooting the swords and fake plants.
