And you don't have it yet?  ;)  Quite intriguing.  I wonder if they will follow up with foods designed to enhance pleco colors, blue african cichlids, etc.

Not very condusive in a all male show tank,  very hard to target the fish...

Unless you train the fish to eat out of your hand  ???  ???  ???

Doing great!  Really cool to see the male coloring up so early on.  Cant wait to see him get bigger.

I was meaning to start a thread on this... I will do that now.
