This is one of the few times I had the camera at the right time! I have a little GT grow out in the tank with the Nassa. The GT is about 2.75" this Nassa ia about 3" and is the #3 ranked Nassa in the tank. The GT wanted the spot behind the slate the Nassa was holding. I think the GT was shocked when he realized why these guys are call "Basketmouths"!

The combatants and the action. Nobody was hurt but the GT will be moved to another tank, since it's starting to get a little rowdy.

lol nice shot! Maybe it wants to take out the GT when it still can.

Haha...I never have the camera when anything cool happens. I'll take out the GT later when I get home, even though the Nassa have big mouths they are delacate and I don't want to risk injury.

great timing

Thanks, like I said I never get good shots and even if I am in position to get a good pose the delay between pressing the button and the camera taking the pic usually causes me to miss it.

Thank you, I wasn't in the market for another GT but when I saw him in the tank he impressed me @ 1.5" so I got him. He is definitely a type-A personality, not the least bit shy.
 
HA! That's funny stuff! Good luck with the GT. Looks like a nice specimen. They are sure rowdy lil beasts sometimes.

I really need to go check that place out. Do they have any baby Orino PB there?

Thanks, I think he shows some promise.

A little more size on that Nassa and it could suck down that GT! Nice shots!

Haha.....yeah, I don't need that! I moved him to another tank last night.

It's worth the trip SA is a great store with a great staff. I didn't see any Orino when I was there a few weeks ago. You could also contact The Fish Junky and check availability if SA doesn't have any.
