Growing out Little Tackers...

[Nic]

G'day again guys,
I have got a little angel, he's probably about 5 - 13cm top to bottom.
He's a marbled vieltail and will look great big.
Just wanted to know the best way to get them in tip-top shape relatively quickly.
I also have another one which would around the 20cm mark, just wondering If it'd b any different for a bigger fish.
Thx for ur help
Nic

the physiology that these guys ahre with discus just isn't funny, as such water quality + high protein food is the trick to growing them up big and strong, i got given a handfull (bout 12) of 3cm fry to have a play with, threw them into a 6x2x2 within 7 months these fish are monsters, feed a varied diet high in protein mine get color bits, NLS chiclid/thera A, breeders blend flake, shrimp pellets the occasional treat of beefheart mix.

adults and juvies get fed the same, they just love it.

lots of food and good variety

lots of watr changes and good filtration

that's pretty much the recipe for any fish type!
