Yes agree. Mine is dark and the patterns not so distinct. Quite messy. I used to have 2 solid clean blue plueros but i sold them away as they refused MP. i should have continued keeping them and just constantly feed with feeders. What a waste.

Growth rate i think quite slow if im not wrong.

My pleuro readily eat mp, feeder and pellet. It takes around 2 years to grow from 3''-11''.
