Its nice to see that they have filled out nicely Chen :)

Have you been feeding them anything in particular or have you used medication in case it was internal worms :?:

Thanks!

I put them through 3 series of anti parasite treatment and 1 antibiotics..

ALOT of parasites came out...some as long as 5 cm..tapeworms, and something which looks like a lice...has long hairy legs for attachment..

Since those treatments, I gave them chopped prawns and bloodworms..they wouldnt touch pellets yet though.

He looks terrific. Chen. Great Job!

I was impressed with the second photo. He looks massive next to that little guy. :)

Great clown pics Chen. Glad everything is going well. What size tank are you planning to keep them in?
