They look great bro!

Your weeksii will always be my favorite in your group, pure monster UJ right there.
Thx, yes that Weeksii is special. I got very lucky with him

They really do look great.
Appreciate the comment

+1. Would love to see how they're developing. Need to (cough cough) research them some more before I'm ready to order...;)

O
Some pics coming soon...... Talked to Spencer today, only a few left.....

Any updates aka photos for us?
Smaller one is around the 14" mark, the larger paler one 15". ( really long flowing tail fin helps) They both are hogs and have the CB insatiable appetite which I am happily accomadating. Patterns are still really washed out on both. To me they are on the other end of the spectrum to my old WC 24" boy. But what they lack in coloring they are making up in growth and beast potential. (That phrase suits them)
I notice that they are starting to bulk up in girth in addition to length
The larger one is now only 1/2" smaller than the endi that came in with them.

Thanks Hao, the place I got them from "The Afishianados" sold them as CB. To me they lack the "wild" look that Godzilla and my old boy had. From some angles they do appear to have a bit of the frog eye look.

That said I am very happy with them and looking forward to seeing the upper end of their growth potential

It's amazing to see how different they look now compared to when you first got them at 5"!

Any chance u think it's a potential congi x endli? They do look like the ones CDM in Japan has. They all seem to sport that 'sexy sausagy' body. Something about the whole head too. Just sharing my opinion. Of corse, can be way way wrong, lol. CDM has a progression pics of several. But here is a Couple pics.

It is possible, I think the next 6 months will be interesting to see how they evolve
