阿下 now and then

I had 阿下 from petsmart last year (2010 fall).. and didn't like it, so I throw it to my filter box (anoxic filter system) This weekend, per Kai's request, we dig throw the filter, and relocated 阿下 to the normal pond, he/she is 7" compare with its sibling 阿上 who is at least 9-10 inches (will post picture once I can catch it). But 阿下's color is improved very nicely! Noticing that he got lots of secondary hi, I never put any food in filter box, so it was on algae all the time and somehow enhanced its color.



This is when he was 4" long:

2011 Geisha is 17" now!
