MLBfan's second 29 gallon! Yes!!!

It's been... ok (to say the most)

It is staying at its roots, but the top part has flown of.

If someone could help me with this problem (read latest post from me) I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

How are your hungry firemouths getting on MLB?

**MLBfan** · 05-11-2012, 11:40 AM

There doing ok.

They are not getting much color on them yet and I think once I get a different substrate they'll be better.

I plan on obtaining one more fish (keeping name of it secret) by the end of next month.

I have found with mine it did take until it was around 2.5-3inches before the colours really popped. Now he has electric blues on his dorsal fins, looks cool.

Oooooo surprises

can we get a clue??

Oh, I forgot, I am going to get a Q tank soon.

Smart move

After I get him, I'll make it a mini contest.

So already we know it is a 'He'

Just a piece of advice: many fish show better colors over dark substrates than light ones. I switched from white to black a few years ago, and it made a huge difference. I've heard they especially make a difference in bigger fish, like firemouths.
