Sometime in April this year,I received a call from Sam of Samgold telling me the sightig of a potential competition grade black in his Bangkok trip.Without hesitation and just based on his stringent eagle-eyed appreciation,I went ahead to purchase this fish from the accompanied photo.This is what I received from the email
It is a male and the body looks a bit short and headgrowth not so pronounced.Blacks are reputable for being slow grower and males are especially poorly endowed with good headgrowth.So it is a good challenge for me to bring out the best of this fish.My vision of this fish comprises of the following criterias that need to be addressed a)pronounced headgrowth b)black color maintained and not deteriorate c)Swimming posture not compromised d)acceptable overall growth Well today,here's the latest pictures of the above fish.Judge it for yourself if you can see if all the requirements are met |

Lenghtened body with lots of potential to bulk up.Coupled with your generous new FGT setup, I bet this piece will turn into a beauty in due course. |
