They're about 8 and 10cm, respectively. Both received at 6cm in December. Once dominance was established the [now male] exploded within two weeks. It was astonishing to watch; I've never had an angel grow at that pace.

You know it! Haven't been keeping as many non-photos in the past few years as I used to, but always have love for my dendros.

Beautiful tank man, love the bandits!

What are you feeding your dendros and how often?

I spot feed them LRS Fish Frenzy about once per week. Although they catch quite a bit on their own during daily fish feedings.

Awesome, but lots and lots of flow.

This is one of my favorite tanks!

Similar threads

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
