OHHH you see that maroon striping? Bubbles is absolutely GORGEOUS. Mine has a few red spots, but I love the full stripes. I agree, yet another competitor for POTM!
Happiness comes through doors you didn't even know you left open.
Thanks for the comments guys. Bubbles is about 3.5" including tail. I got him almost 2 months ago and he was about 2.5". The tank is a 120g (4x2x2) and he has been in there for almost a month.
I can't get over his maroon stripes - I keep looking at my fahaka and seeing the little red spots he has - I think I'm a bit jealous
I love my little fahaka though, Quite happy to see another beautiful and happy baby!

It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Adorable..... Good for u on getting the proper size tank to start. Watch that overfeeding. A few more decorations, caves and a backdrop might make him more at home and the tank more interesting.

Thanks for the input. I like the black background as opposed to the bright colourful ones with pictures of plants etc. I only like natural things in my tanks. I will add more driftwood and perhaps a few rocks. The tank had more plants but Bubbles was eating them! I removed all of the plants he was eating so it looks a little bare now. About the overfeeding I hadn't fed him for 3 days because he was so full from the plants he was eating. He hasn't touched the plants that I have left in there so I'm crossing my fingers. Also he seems to digest the plants much slower than meatier food. Has anyone had this experience?
