Default Woot!!!!

i was examining my citrenellum and i noticed that his nochul hump is starting to come in its about 3 millimeters off his forehead and hes only about 1 and 1/2 inches so do you think that hes going to be one of those prize-winning cichlids with the giant hump that everything is afraid of lol?

Depends what he's in with. If he's the dominant male in the tank then yes!

I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families:
Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.

You know in humans the right ratio of lipids is really important for brain development so perhaps you'll end up with super intelligent fantastical fish! Beware, ha ha ha
