A little more change I'm pleased with...

Remember the "tank mates" photo from earlier in the thread? The little sanke in these shots is the same one, demonstrating that our water is sumi friendly to say the least.
Aria continues to change, especially on the head as we had hoped.
I plan to bowl her up later this afternoon for better pics, but these are from last week just to chum the waters.

There will be a slight delay with the bowling photo's. I've been spraying lacquer in a closed space and I'm a wee bit stoned...

Finally...

I got her bowled and photo'd. I've been taking lessons from Winkie so the pics are what they are, but at least you can see the changes Her skin looks a lot better in person than in the pics.
The face has really begun to consolidate into a better pattern, while the rest of the body is going up and down as expected. I'm also pleased with the growth rate. From 7" to 9" in an indoor quarantine tank ain't too shabby
