Hello guys! i was wondering if maybe when this guy grows, i can join a show? do you see anything bad in him that makes him unable to qualify? I dont have a cam right now but as compared to this picture, his head has developed a lot more!







well, aside from the small head in the picture, is there anything else bad about this lil guy? oh and he's now sun treated haha to make sure he stays black xD

Bro, it is not advisable to lift the fish out of the water for picture-taking....
Firstly, the fish will be stressed out of water.
Secondly, all the fins will be cramped, so if there is any fin defect, it won't be visable and we could not see any other defects also.
Lastly, to win a competition, there are others important factors/qualities.
Thus, head-growth should not be the only thing to be concentrated on.

Try to take a photo with the fish in the water.
Perhaps, a video will be good, as deportment of the fish will be equally important also.
