Elvis is in the building

[aussieman57]

Finally, picked up my wet pet for the living room 90 gallon. Meet Elvis a Herichthys carpinitis Escondido variant. At only 4 inches he looks good. Have not been able to get him to eat anything yet including a live red wriggler worm. Probably too full. I had 5 Pearl Danio in there for dithers and he's systematically killed and eaten all 5. LOL. The most recent murder was last night. Has already excavated and rearranged the entire tank.

He looks great!

I’ve got a little Cyano right now that did the same thing. Bought 8 danios as dither fish and by the next morning was down to 2, the day after those 2 were gone.

Ate his first worm tonight. Danios all gone.

He's eating Northfin Veggie Pellets now. Already training him to come up for food. I will have plenty of killifish culls to feed.

Northfin veggie is my Carpintis’ favorite. He goes crazy for those.
