My official 3 months, now 36mm SL photos. Dang, for being so small, they have pretty good pectoral odontodes already.

My three lineola fry are almost 6 months old now. The parents still trap almost weekly, but no new spawns since October.
Cheers, Eric

Now 6 months old. Didn't get measurements yet, but I'd guess this one is about 40-45mm. Will take real measurements in the next week.
Cheers, Eric

Did an 85% WC on the Peckoltia lineola tank, in order to catch the 6 month old juvies for measurement and to try and get the parents to spawn again. Refilling the tank with 75% RO water.
The juvies are huge! The biggest one is over 55mm SL!

Thank you! The adults were 80mm SL when they first spawned. I don't think they've grown much in length since I got them. But compared even to the largest juvenile, they are very stout, bulky animals.
Cheers,
Eric
