When I got Casper, I also got a group of Carpinitis.
they all shared a tank for a week I think, then my other tank opened up to split them up. Got one to 5in maybe before I gave him to a fellow MFKer.
I named it Thor, but looking back now some years later looks female. But it's the one that got the biggest of all. Same fish on black sand.
Really excited for both Lyonsi and Carpintis. Tho not looking so good on the new tank side. Petsmart has removed the Aqueon 6ft 125gal from their website, so has Aqueon itself.
Kevin at TUIC said Lyonsi will be in mid month so will be getting them for the oak 125 I have.
My apartment owner said he was going to redo my kitchen and living room areas(my apartment was built in 68) so I shut all my tanks save one for Casper down, gave away all the fish. A few months later he said he wouldn't be able to do the remodel on mine as a different unit ran way over budget. So I set up a 125gal and ordered some more Carpinitis this time bigger and from COTA.
Only ordered one of each, he killed her sadly.
Then he turned into super chicken and would never come out of his hide so gave it to The Wet Spot.
So if I can find a tank, will be try number 3 for Carpintis.
Well we are into May now and he has continued with the non aggression while I clean the tank. Actually it's more like he doesn't bother me so long as the gravel vac is in the tank. If I am just scrubbing algea he seems to think my arm is to-go food, so have to keep the gravel vac between him and my arm....
May as well just smear yourself with Hikari, dive in and get it over with!! ?
Good night! he is really bulking up. I hate to even say it but I think he wants an 8' tank lol. Are you doing any live or frozen feeding at this point?
