Your 'before & After' Pics

[Pezzers 0]

OH WOW, I just found a photo of Patrick on a complete fluke from about 5 years ago. What a squirt *lol*

2005:

Now:

He is a bit stunted as he was not in adequate space for a long time, but I am learning proper care now and he is doing much better thanks to Kokos

This is always such a fun thread to look at

Here are some updates on 3 of my guys (the 4th is too new to have changed..yet!)

Baby George when I got him about 3 years ago. For reference, Elaine (in the pic with him) was about 4 inches at most

Here's a pic of him from last week

Now for Frederick. Here he is when I got him 2 years ago

And last week. He has grown more round and a bit longer, and has also lost all his black.

And here's Penny from just over a year ago

And last week

BT, your before and after pics are probably the most dramatic I've seen! You just never can tell how they're gonna turn out, huh? Good job

[dfernandez77 6]

Haha!

I think Istvan will be a bigger monster than Tinko. He's only about 7 months old.

holy crap your fish, willy, has gotten HUGE! .. ######, congrats on the great care!

I thought I would share Google's growth over the past year. I got him in December of 2008.

Here he is in December 08 in his QT tank which is a 10 Gallon:

And here he is today, 1 year and 1 month later in his 27 Gallon:

And another more close today:

He sure has grown!!

Tinko is a Ranchu - and yes, she is quite peaceful.

Not a huge change but I found this oldish picture and was surprised at the difference! She ha gotten a lot more black, especially on her dorsal and face.

Marley

April 6, 2009 (the day I got "him"): Appox. only about an inch long at the most (including tail)

March 15, 2010: about the size of a coaster now / my palm. 5 inches or so I would say. He swims too fast to measure.

(clickable thumbnails)

I've had my goldfish for exactly two months ...yesterday. I've had them two months and one day.

Karyu in front of the same rock. Today and the day I got him. He's like tripled in size. O_O

Nathaniel hasn't grown quite as much as Karyu, but he got a slow start. He's quickly catching up.

Same rock.

Sorry about the poo!! Best picture comparison though. Tora's put all his energy to filling out and coloring instead of growing longer.

Oh, I forgot about this one.

I didn't realize how much they've grown until I went back and looked at their old pictures.

Oh, and ~ I just cleaned the rest of the salt out of my redcap oranda's tank and I did a 50% water change on my 40 gal because I spent a while cleaning out the gravel. So now it's squeaky clean!! I'm so proud of myself. haha ...it took forever to fill it back up too. My arm's sore.

[Trinket 108]

I just found two pics alike and thought Id share, interesting these are the same two buddies a few years down the road

[RanchuDressing 2,542]

Wow, Trinket! One of them sure did grow!!! Nice job!

Black Moor to Gold Telescope within a few months. His before picture was a bit after I got him too. He was completely black when I got him.
