That's not too bad of a price considering you're all the way in the UK. That's great that he's eating already. If he is taking krill, try pellets. If he takes both then you're set. 90% of the gars I had I got eating pellets but some are stubborn. But if yours takes it, then that is great.
 
FFS here in Aus i seen one only so far for $800! I'm freakin jealous

Hey Trust here's a pic of my Silver Aro! yet again poor quality i only have a web cam at the moment until my mum and dad get back from Australia they are spending 3 days in singapore and they are getting my a digital camera so there will be much better pitures to be taken.
