lol, this one is tough to shoot. Hides under the driftwood, is dark in color anyway, and light from above only makes it worse lol. So pretty much have to hold a light from the side or get crap every time. In a few months during late spring and the summer my natural lighting situation will be much more suitable for viding and taking pics. that's if for some reason this thing doesnt grow out of control by then lol.

Do you live in your own house necro? If so, you should put the Wels and Flathead in an outdoor pond over the summer. That would get some nice growth out of them!
IIRC Montana summers are very hot, so you could possibly even put the ID shark in there

good vid! Feed other things necro, shrimp seems so bland.....try silversides, fish filets, etc! They aren't picky and as you can see its a hog. Did you get my PMs as well?

He gets whole white shrimp as well right now and pellets. I am slowly adding different foods. It took it a few days to get the shrimp. Now I can start adding other things as well. I know they aren't picky lol. Remember the pics of the one that tried to eat a basketball or something? I don't think I got any pms from you but I will double check as my computer has been whacky today. lol, you seem really excited about this fish. I can't get him to take silversides yet. The vulture scoops them all up before he can get any. Also a strange note is the Bacu or granulated catfish has been beating up on the wels a bit every time he comes close lol. I don't think he likes it when the wels tries to share his hiding spot. Funny thing is the wels doesn't bother him at all. Strange since he beat the snot out of the flathead that wasn't even trying to push him out.
