20" Armatus eating shrimp 2

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very nice, how often do they lose, shed, old teeth? And how fast do the new ones come in? You've had this guy quite a while if I remember. It's been a long time since I've been on the internet. How big is he now? He look's great!
