I really don't think its a husbandry issue due to the two other granites are both taking food very well. The runt of the clutch is the picky one and although I know he is drinking water he hasn't taken any food as of yet like his clutchmates. He (I say he loosely bc I still am waiting to sex them all) is very active and fast moving with a lot of tongue flicking and super sharp eyesight. So, actually I am not worried about him. It just would be nice to see him take food when I offer it. From left to right and the first two pics are the larger scrub, next two pics are the runt, third pic is the pastel 100% het granite.

Man those are so nice albert! I may have to get a few in the near future. I don't know of many people working with them anymore so it look's like you have a nice project going on and i've not seen to many that look as nice as yours!

Thanks Jeff, I hope it's a male. The runt I haven't sexed yet .The pastel scrub is a female.

Thank you D, I agree. I'm hoping he is a male!

Hey guys, went to check the sexes on the two granites tonight and both are female. The pastel het I had checked yesterday and she also is female. I guess it will be good to check again when they get a bit more size to them. Keep you posted. Little runt took some cut up guppies tonight. Finally! Yay!

You should send me the little pastel, Dart wouldn't mind a girlfriend....

...my husband would mind Dart getting a girlfriend, but you know.

I love the reduced pattern one. So pretty!
