comin along well mate

you can see the difference in size as the eyes don;t look so large in the newer pics. The black line looks nice on the dorsal.

cheers mate . i laugh when i look at the 1st pics in this thread , theyre all eyes lol . growth a bit slower last couple of weeks , but from reading up it seems that lutinos grow in spurts rather than at a steady pace , so not worried. they are however getting to be right fussy eaters. basicly if its not alive and wriggling they aint interested , no matter how hard i persist all they will eat is mealworms , crickets and beetles. not exactly balanced enough for my liking tho , im gonna try not feeding them at all for a couple of days to see if they will eat pellets ,peas,prawn etc again when they are proper starving . if not the plan is to give them their beloved bugs all the time but gutload them 1st so they are getting a good balanced nutrition still. plus i will give them some live river shrimp as well . they should nail those
