He acts fine and seems happy enough but still has the raised scales. He also seems to have lost some color the past little while although I think it may have to do with the bluer light. But I would also say that the change in diet (from whatever he was eating in Australia to now) is also part of the reason. I do soak all food in lots of vitamins and usually get fish to actually color up but with this guy, he came in so ridiculously bright, that I have a feeling it will be hard to keep him there. I notice much of the red on the tip of his tail has faded. May also be connected to whatever is wrong with his side (scales).

All in all, I guess he is ok but I am still very worried about him. He really has become my favorite fish.
