Does anyone remember my post back in December, where my 2" tiger had a gaping hole in his head? I'd talked about putting him down for a while, but since he was still eating well, I decided not to.
Well the gaping hole turned into a zit and back into a bigger hole and... ... ... until finally it turned into a huge gaping hole and stayed that way for, oh... 6 months? Well about a week ago or so, I looked at his head and another zit was forming. I thought, "oh geez, here we go again. I knew I should have been more vigilant on water changes!" But a day later, the pimple had gone away and scales were seemingly growing where the hole had once been.
2 days later and all that remained was a small dimple; 5 or so and the dimple was gone. So now I have a ~3" tiger, which eats ~40-70 hikari sinking carnivore pellets per sitting. He's quite the beast, and I'll take photos soon--and before I move...
Pax,

PS. Ever since he started eating pellets, I can almost see daily size growth. It's amazing to see him the fastest growing fish in my tank--even seemingly faster than the aro!
