He's approximately a month and half old now. I've been wanting to do some tank rearranging to today he graduated from his floating container to having the 6g by himself. He always frightened easily in the container, so I was concerned that once in the big tank I'd never see him. I only put in a few plants and leveled off the gravel. Well he hasn't stopped moving since he got in the tank He stays mainly in the bottom half and near the perimeter; very impressed with his reflection. It's really the first time he's seen 'another fish' or his own reflection. He definitely has a cichlid look to him, although taking pictures was quite a challenge :%) of course he finds the one dirty corner of the tank The filter intake and cords give a good idea of his size: [/font][/font] ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean
