Dayumn! What an improvement and Max looks freaking amazing. Get a whole tank shot of the setup.

I'll see what I can do. No promises though. I'm stuck using the cell phone right now and it doesn't have the dynamic range to capture the rocky substrate with the black background, it always gets washed out. If I had the Nikon it would be easy as can be to get a shot. I really don't like posting pictures that don't capture what I'm trying to express so again, no promises.
It's all good. I just wanted to see how you aquascaped the tank. No need to rush and Max is just flawless. Such a perfect goliath. And I'm not sure if you didn't notice on my mahseer thread but I also aquascaped my tank with play sand and some malaysian driftwood. I'm liking it a lot better than bare bottom!
I haven't forgotten your request, I've just been busy and haven't gotten lucky with getting a good shot yet!
The second surgery was on July 22nd, so it's been almost two months.
Yes it is!
I got a bright idea tonight. I wanted to try to show you guys just how big Max is getting. I decided to measure my biggest tinfoil barb to see how big he was. I left him wrapped up in the net so he couldn't hurt himself by flopping around.
As you can see, he's just a hair over 4". He wasn't quite lined up with the lines right, but I didn't want to waste any extra time to get it right.
I couldn't get them to line up well, but as you can see, Max is getting HUGE. In the pic below, the TFB was about six inches in front of him while Max was right against the back glass. Still though, you can see that Max is easily at least three tin foil barbs long lol.
I'm surprised he didn't kill the TFB. My albino TFBs are about 7" long and fat so I figured they are safe. But I don't think a 4 incher would last in my tank. I think they just don't like silver thin bodied fish.
I'm not to be honest. Max is fairly tame, he doesn't really bother anyone, especially since he caught that first class thrashing from Drogo.
I was fairly surprised to see Drogo making an honest attempt at eating the tfb though.
I enjoyed having it in the tank fit a while. It really added a lot of movement. The tfb actively shoaled with Max. It would also chase my redtail shark lol. I can't wait till they're big enough to go in the big tank for good.
