Thanks! He has a bit of excess slime coat going on at the moment, I guess just the stress coat measurements for the new water I put in is for an adult and not a growing boy! I worried for a while he had Ich or Columnaris, but I've been monitoring him and feel better that he doesn't have anything wrong fungus or parasite wise.

I just wish he'd hurry up and grow all the way up, he's going to be so darn pretty! :)

You'll be amazed at what he can turn into!

Another update! He now has a name! I told myself before the Super Bowl that if my home team won (Ravens) that I'd name him after player Ray Lewis!

So say hello to Ray Lewis :D Also I'm noticing that what was blue almost has hints of indigo or purple, which makes the name even better!

But mainly y update is about his tail. I've noticed the past couple days that the end of his tail is starting to branch out into rays of sorts, I was worried at first thinking it was finrot or tail nipping, but I've been noticing that the ends of the rays are showing the same color as his body.

I've never seen a tail like this before, is it possible he has a tiny bit of crowntail in him? Just hoping its normal, cause he's still growing very slowly and hasn't hit his second growth spurt yet

Gorgeous male. And a combtail to boot! Nice discount if you ask me ;)
Good lob and May you continue to have good luck!
