LOL! That was me Adam with the comment! You're right he has rewarded you for keeping him several times over. I have one that is beautiful and heading in same direction as your stud. Right now my guy is the tank boss. Great video and always looking forward to your videos
Hey Adams, that fish is amaizing, also my next project will be change my sand, I like the one that you have in your tank, black & white sand, mine is white maybe is good idea to add a couples of bags of black sand
Beautiful! I have a few and they're finicky eaters. What do you feed him? I'm having trouble getting mine to eat. My star sapphires and my starry night cichlids are super finicky and barely eat, they hate the pellets that I give them. What I'm currently giving them is cichlid gold, cichlid staple, Omega one pellets and tropical flakes for everything else in my tank but they don't eat any of it.
+Toua Lee thank you. I feed them northfin cichlid formula and Northfin krill gold. what size pellets do u feed? sometimes you can try smaller pellets or you can soak the pellets for a few minutes in water before feeding. a lot of fish don't like hard pellets
Adam C it's the medium sized pellets. They'll gulp it up and spit it back out. I'll have to try those out and the soaking. Thanks for the quick response man! I also love your tank set up! Watched a few other videos and I love them all!
yeah he looks good! how long did it take to get the spots. i know you said a couple years you had him and some point you was even considering giving up. But you seen the turn ariund
Very Nice Adam! They are for sure a fish to wait and watch transform. Lovely specimen brother!
Just got one, I hope mines grow to look as good as yours!
That star is awesome!!! I have a small one and just waiting for him to start getting his real colors. Good looking fish Adam.
thanks so much louie
Wow!! Stunning!!!

Adam C anytime man! Keep on doing your thing!
yeah he looks good! how long did it take to get the spots. i know you said a couple years you had him and some point you was even considering giving up. But you seen the turn ariund
thanks man. he showed a couple speckles after about 6 months but it took almost 18 months till he started to look like he does now
+Adam C wow thats remarkable!
+news wick im thinking of doing a species only tank with them. Would they do well with there own species
+news wick absolutely. are u subscribed to J Spalding channel? he has a sapphire tank go check it out.
+Adam C J Spalding ok this going to be cool im going over and subbing him up!
grabs so much light
he does, it's almost hard to get a good shot of him because he shines so much
Love it I just ordered a 3.5 inch male how long should i expect him to take to start chipping?
They can take a while to get a lot of chips. You should start seeing the first sign of chips are 4.5 inch, sometimes sooner
Motor City Cichlids where are 3.5" available? can't find them anywhere online
Hmm, have u checked southeast cichlids? I have a promo code with then if you order
That's a very pretty fish Adam. Do you still have him? I'll check out a more recent video.
+Ben Ochart thanks ben. yes he's still in my tank and is full of speckles. he's probably my oldest fish
@@adamc7918 update SS video for 2019? :)
Unfortunately he passed last year. He was 8
On fire!
thanks, it can be hard to get a good shot of him with the light reflection
Adam C some fish are just hard to get on camera. Moving around too much, etc.
Are the big spots small spots better for selling
The larger they get the larger spots they'll get, either way they are always desirable
What camera are you using?
+Moon Leah this is just my Samsung galaxy s7 phone
👌👌👌
+Cichlid Passion thank you
Just ordered a 1.5er from Tampa bay cichlids. Hopefully it will be a male
Awesome, best of luck
Fuego!!!
haha thanks T man
Hi.
Amazing!
Can you please send me the model of the lighting ....I want to buy in ebay or amazon.
Eu plug.
Tnks
Motti.
Hi motti. Sure thing. This is a standard 72 inch led light made by beamswork. I ordered it on Amazon 7 or 8 years ago and have bought 2 more since
also a black light would set hom off
Bad A$$...
