Lost 2 more intermedia a few weeks ago or so. Moved my monoculus, Cr. strigata, golden Dorado and black wolf into my 135 growout. Other fish are a V. argentea, 3 beacon pleco and a flagtail.
Giving it Another Go

I’ve lost 3 monos and 2 azuls. It was really hard to spend the money again on more but I want to have some bass in my ray tank.. just haven’t had any luck keeping them alive long enough to get them into main tank.. I have 4 orino’s now and I’m scared to death I’m gonna loose them, they seem to be doing alright but I’ve seen one flash off the bottom a couple times and they go dark sometimes and breath a little hard then go back to normal. Treated with some praziquantel and salt. They are such cool fish!! I’m sorry you lost some but I feel your pain!! I never thought bass would be so hard.
Unfortunately, I'm down to the orino and mono. Moved the mono into the "big" tank along with the Cr. strigata
Haven't updated in a while. Orino is growing slowly, but looking good and is still in the 135. The mono was moved to the 240 and is pigging out (about 12" now). I got an "ocellaris" (last picture) that's in my 75 gallon, but it's going to go in the 135 along with my aro when I move the wolf fish into the 240 tonight. Wish I could add more, but I'm trying to be a little more frugal. I might get a kelberi if I can budget it. Hoping to get a few intermedia when they show back up here if I can.
Thanks, it's turning into a nice one. I had 2 more and 1 looked like it was going to be even nicer, but I lost it. I like when they have clean rosettes, just gold around them and no pattern inside or between them. This one is looking like it's going to be pretty close.
Probably about 8-9". They always grow slowly for me, which is fine.
