Your 86 gal looks much, much better with the sand substrate than your previous set-up.
Don't know how newly set up it was when you took the pics, but give it some time & the fish coloration should come back big time, when they settle in some more - I think it looks great.

Thanks. Ya I just changed the substrate to sand 2 days ago. They should get their color back like in the 1st pic in no time. Some of these pic shots were taken yesterday and today.

I got him big, it's wild caught. For myself I'm against buying baby tig's now as this is my 3rd Tig I've been through... Other two I tried growing out ended up dieing due to swim bladder problem...I just have bad luck with growing them out...
