They are really nice Robyn, I am extremely jealous
It is funny, I am also looking sideways at my africans.. It too would make a very nice discus tank(don't know how they would take it though !!)

Hi Sharon, thanks for nice comment.
Finally got a half way decent shot of my heckels. They were very small & young when I got them. I had them on their own in bare bottom QT from around Feb 08 till 3 weeks ago. They were fed a minimum of 3 times a day and mostly had a daily water change of between 10 - 20%. This was seldom missed. Vac'd up the waste after every meal - all in the hopes of proper growth & no stunting.
One is smaller than the other & I'm not sure if he is stunted. I'm hoping someone can tell me. Maybe I should ask in the critique section?
If there is still time for them to do some more growing, when my new wild browns move out of QT, I could move them back in there on their own. Should I do that, or is it too late to feed them up further?
Cheers, RobynPreviously known as "Tankwatcher"

congratulation your heckels are finally removed from QT. they are looking good and one of them look very healthy and fat. can't wait to see all your other wilds are put into your display tank.

Hi Aaron
I'm really happy with them. Just have to decide if they'll go in the 7ft or 4ft. It will probably ultimately be the 7ft, but they have moved into the 4ft temporarily.Previously known as "Tankwatcher"

TW's Wilds - Update
Time for an update of my 2 new wild browns & 1 new wild royal blue. They are temporarily in a 4ft, but will move to the 7ft in the near future, where they will join my other wild royal blue & the heckels.
