I'm 99% sure these are temensis. Any differences I mentioned earlier in the thread are probably due to locality. I've got temensis from three different locations and they all got their own traits

New grow out setup. It's crazy how dark they were when they had the black rock.

instead of going with the flat black i tried the texture rock looking paint, kind of different what do you think
on the background? Definitely was a good move to change the black substrate-black background. I tried that and I didn't like it either. Can't wait to see how they look after growing a few more inches!
I think that looks great! I never thought of that. What brand did you use? It's black, but with pizzaz. Your bass are great also BTW.

I used a rust oleum brand then went over it in black. They are the coolest bass i have ever had. They are the most personable fish i have ever had.
