getting a Eleotris picta{water Cow}

[Red Devil]

agressive... they like live foods and scallops... try not to get anything in the tank at the same size or smaller... will become nippy when hungry... if you don't feed, it'll bite chunks out of any fish it can...

thanks thats good..

i have seen this one at the LFS now a few times,..i finally claimed him and had them put him on hold for me.. he was always swimming and very active.. but i quess once he settles in he will relax.. looking forward to him, he was monster .. lol

well as we all know, each fish's personality is different so you may just have a super happy, super active water cow! and there's nothing wrong with that. Even the ones that just hang on the bottom of the tank seem packed full of personality. Great fish.
