Default hows my weight?

Hello. My name is susannah. I came to live with a big human creature called Becky but she worries a lot. I'm a male ibera just gone three years old. My previous diet and care wasn't so good so i'm a bit bumpy. I'm 9.5cm and 195g. Is this about right? I'm VERY much bigger than my little friend who's two. I now eat all kinds of weeds and flowers and pellets once or twice a week. Nutrobal on the weeds and I love the cuttlefish.

Your weight isn't bad at all Susannah (hope your mates don't tease you about the fine name you have ). Just remember you should be around 230g when you hit 10cm.

Thanks Dan.
Will I carry on growing bumpy and just keep getting worse cos of the bad start or with a better environment will I be able to smooth out the new growth?
Yes I know i've got a ridiculous name, not even nice for girl, but it goes with Eddie (who is a girl!). Meaningful to my humans, from a book, whatever one of thems is. X

The new growth should be much better, not perfect but better.

Whoop thanks Dan.
I'll keep a close eye out on him and perhaps stop worrying about it. The little one i've had for a year is growing super smooth so i'll do the same for susannah. Just hope too much damage wasn't already done, and to be fair... i've seen worse.
