Argentea Rio Tulija

One of my cooler chistmas presents. Was ridiculously shy on first introduction to the qt tank. Didn't eat for almost 4 days. Very skittish too. Then I wake up today he's out front begging for food and he wants to put on a photoshoot. lol. So here's "Oreo's" first shoot. Gage hooked me up. About 7.5" and eating pellets, lettuce cucumber and little shrimp

I love how "wild" that fish looks. Looks like you pulled it right out of a Mexican river and threw it in a tank. A lot better than some of the fatty Vieja I see around. Could use a little filling out but not much!!!

Thanks guys. Yeah he's still a bit too thin for my taste as well. He's taken to the pellets nicely though...no more shrimp for the time being. It was the first thing he ate and he ate a lot of it lol. I was afraid I'd finally get him to eat, but give him bloat in the process. Veggies were next which was really good. then pellets.....

gonna try some zucchini today. Really goes nuts for fresh shrimp though. I'll try to get some vid up. Still learning how to use the cam lol
