[green_fox]

[AquataHolic420]

[Darthsniper]

Best of luck with them all.

Great GT pic's i love GT's.:popcorn:

[vicedretard]

pretty aggrssive...i like the colors on him...good job

[BostonPatriot]

Thanks for the replies guys! Right now I just feed him New Life Spectrum, Krill and some Hikari. That is the way he gets everytime I walk by the tank (seriously) I think he is insane. I am not usually the type to aggrevate my fish but I seem to do that anyways just by walking by the tank!

[JeffLeMay]

awesome fish, i didn't know gts could be so aggressive. beautiful colors!

[Damon0306]

Wow I love him!! I have a single male GT, he has been living by himself in a 45-gallon aquarium..

He is so shy I cannot stand it.. When I bought him 2 years ago I gave him a fake plastic log to hide in.

Well he is now just shy of 11 inches from his nose to the tip of his tail and all he does is hide.

If you make a sudden movement he hides, I looked at your post TODAY because yesterday I revamped his whole tank.

Changed his gravel from black to natural color, removed his log so he cannot hide, heavly planted the tank with fake plants, still have the black background on the tank.

I have no idea why he is so mental... Had him since a baby.. I've seen more aggressive oscars..

Gonna post some pictures in a few days once he gets used to no log to hide in. I thought after a few years he would outgrow his constant hiding, but I guess not.

I actually got to the point of wanting to get rid of him, but I will feel bad knowing he will die a slow death in one of my LFS's.

If I had room for another tank I would pick up a JAG, that is what I really wanted, but at the time I just couldn't find a nice one.

Here is an older pic of him..

Maybe you could try adding some dither fish. I dunno though with only 45G to work with. Maybe two or three Silver Dollars?

Nice GT.....can't figure out why he hasn't destroyed the Africans in there....:screwy:

[noreaster]

i never ealized how good looking the green terrors were, damn now I'm thinking I need another tank.

the wife is goona be p#ssed at you guys

[GooDyboy420]

I feel im bringing back green terrors...with the GT problem have you ever feed him live? That should get him going. I dont know im going to get another.

Boston boy your tank is prime, i thought that was a bong in the background...but its one of those thromoters...prime

That's too bad about him being shy. He is a very nice looking fish but GT's are weird like that. Some are very outgoing, some are aggressive and some are very shy and passive.

[BostonPatriot]

Nice GT.....can't figure out why he hasn't destroyed the Africans in there....:screwy:

Ha ha me too. I've been pretty lucky so far. He doesn't show much aggression to the other fish though I think they pretty much know that he runs the tank.

Can never have too many GT's they are my favorite fish....always have been. I'm telling ya if you can get your hands on a Royal they are definately worth the money when they get bigger.:drool:

Here is a few stills. Damn the camera doen't really do him justice.

[PeteFromTassie]

That is a HOT fish man, I'm really jealous! :-)

[cichlid savage]

Good looking GT lots of attitude.

[JCA]

how long have you had yours? i hope mine turns out the same way...right now he is just constantly running from my green severum who is about the same size maybe bigger. of course it has only been the first day! and do you have fin nippers? by the way, i definitely recommend royal gt's over regular gt's. mine is amazing!

I've had mine for about a week now. He pretty much was like this right out of the bag. I'm sure yours will show the severum whats up when he gets settled in. BTW that is a great looking guy that you got. Royal GT's look so much better it is just too bad the camera doesn't do their colors justice. Alot of people don't know or can see the difference when they have only seen them in pictures.
I don't have any fin nippers but it looks like my guy came from a tank that did. He is making a quick recovery growing back his fins. Hopefully it won't take too long to get him monster size.:D

[Oscarboyz]

is that really royal but mine looks that and it was a normal gt?
