For $6, it is consider a decent catch and a piece to learn from. The head and buffalo cheeks are very nice. But the curve is not to my liking. Fort your next purchase, put more emphasis on a smoother, gradual curve. Headgrowth should always be a later priority. Because you can always improve the headgrowth by pumping bloodworms, but the curve will always be permanent.

Thanks for sharing
thx machoranchu. already QT it for 4days le. i notice it become skinny abit le. so today i start to feed it some peas. i have some doubt. this piece is more likely to be a TVR or SVR?

I think maybe bcos of stress from living in the small tank at the lfs, the gills a bit open and fish look not very healthy....I think under your care in 2-3 weeks time there should be vast improvement.

Thanks for sharing.
thx kitsilano. i did a 30mins japan yellow spa for it on day 1 then put it into QT. day 1, 2, 3 it look stress up and always isolated itself in 1 corner and seldom swim. day 4. it start to swim freely le. so i decide to drop in 1 small pea. very alert. 2 sec.. that pea gone.. yumyum.

Can be many reasons bro. Could be becos of different parentage, different spawns mixed together, same spawn but this one develop the cheeks first the others later,... etc etc etc. Just keep them healthy.
