Absolutely awesome! Beautiful! How much did you have to pay? (If you don't mind me asking)

We have a 9 inch watermelon royal in a 90g... it is still hard to keep up with all of the waste it produces. You had mentioned that it is currently in a 75g for now, what size tank do you think you will end up putting Shredder in? Congratulations!

Gorgeous fish..I had an example simillar in patterning (but the grey form) which died after I made a stupid mistake with water quality (along with alot of my stock

). I have another one now which is much smaller (2.5") and seems to have a less complex pattern then the previous one. Hopefully it will grow.

Hope it enjoys the new home.

He was free actually, I won him in a raffle. As for the tank...if I decide to keep him with the oscars he will probably get a 150g or something.

Wow for free!?! Even better! I think a 150 would be good for it, although I'm not sure about the bio-load of the oscars and him combined... (I guess it is dependant upon the number of oscars) Ours just stay on the driftwood most of the time, but I do notice it being more active in the tank at night.

I have two oscars so I think the 150g would work well. So far things are fine in the 75g.
