How much are you selling the big ones for? Have any males?Haha there aren't any small ones left :/ they all grew into big ones, they are all bigger than the big ones were when I was selling them.

@Tank - yesterday, I put in three female endlers with a strange humpback look to them. I thought Tankie would gobble them down. Not so. At least - yet. While I was at work today, one or more of these females had friggin babies so now there's a cloud of teeny weeny endler babies in there also!
UGH!
Does your SRT eat other fish? They're supposed to be omnivore maniacs, but Tankie seems to act like this new food source is invisible.

Good point. However, there was only one wonky one - the other two were fine.
Update: Tankie hasn't eaten anyone.
Dammit.
I need to get me some Oscars.
I got one you can have lol...

Oh I know YOU DO! Seriously, I'm not sure what else I can do with all these Endlers. Tankie hasn't taken ONE into his gullet. I probably feed him too well. Last night, I was wandering around in here, wondering where I could put another tank...lol

No no Tankie has his own tank. His buddy, a SAE from Julzhull hangs out with him. I managed to scoop most of the adults out of there today (the Endlers) but there's still a bunch of shifty little babies in there that I can't catch.
I think if I'd let him get hungry enough, he might eat them. But I'm a softie.
I pulled out all his plants today since he was destroying them anyway and I'll put them in other tanks. I need to start thinking about another tank for him and replace the one he's in that I got from Loren. I can get a little more tank in that same space - especially, if I go higher - and wider...not sure what size that is....

@Tank - so I removed all of Tankie's plants. He was destroying them. All that money I spent on fancy planting dirt = dumb dumb dumb. I'm going to get a bigger tank for him with gravel and stuff that makes sense for a monster like Tankie.
P.S. he's getting REDDER!!! Pictures don't capture the difference -- but there surely is one. He's getting RED!

I know I'm super late but I've gotta try! Any left?
Has anybody who bought one had them fade yet? My female is 4” and hasn’t even begun the process of fading..... would love to see and hear some updates.
Joel, maybe you can start a new thread in a different section where we can all update them!

I actually have one left, it hasn't faded but it started to show some deep orange between it's pearls. It's hard to tell if and when they'll fade some dont start to fade til they are adults even, also I've heard ph of your water can play a big part. Anyway lol what section should I make the thread in lloyd? I know one guy bought 6 but some how ended up killing most of them and tried to blame the fish :/ but mine is still alive and swimming strong and I know yours is still hanging in there and Vicki still has hers I'll ask the other two people for updates on theirs today!
