thanks bro. all my aros end up being sumo no matter how thin they were when i got them. i feed them 3-4 times a week only but they end up stealing my rays' sinking pellets so i can't do anything about it

light, genes, fish age is what i believe in. but above all... some light is definately needed. no need to tan with artificial lights, but definately can't keep a red without any light exposure in a dark tank and expect colour to get better with age.
