Beautiful Congi mate. In the UK it seems hard to source Congi like this, only ones we had here in years were mass farmed in a small gene pool. They arrived with bulging eyes, deformed finlets, round heads and most of them had little to no markings, even on dark substrates.
Grew relatively quick though, doubled in size in only a few months, has really slowed around 13 inch now.

Here it is, second from the front

Thanks. yes i guess i got lucky to find a place that imports some good quality ones. They were not in the best shape when i got them but they are getting there quickly.

Thanks. The first one i have a feeling could turn out to be a nice one. There is something about the mouth that looks cool and it has crazy appetite.

Thanks a lot. Yes the dark one is the new one.

You got a good catch with that new congi, really hard to find a nice specimen, most are pale looking.

Great update. Colors are looking very crisp!

how did you make that rock cave? Or where can I find one like that? The polys seem to love it! That's certainly an adorable picture of them just sitting in there. hehe.
