Hey, it looks quite big actually
 i would watch out the viridescens when it gets bigger - this one can be a terrible fish and torture the other ones!!! Thx for the pic mate. |

Geez that's amazing Ted! How large did DD say he was? Do they measure nose to end of tail or nose to caudal peduncle?
BTW, you should post some updates to LotF&F on Facebook, I know a lot of people would love to see this guy. |

The colors on that fish are gorgeous. I love the almost purple/blue? sheen along the top...

the fuscus was raised from a tiny baby...was about an inch...pretty sure there are baby pics of him on my "130 x 36 x 36 incoming" build thread...you can see him from the day I got him until recently...they are great fish, awesome personalities, but can get aggressive...all the fish in my tanks are bought as babies- excluding, obviously the Cinereus...
