GT question

[Z Trip]

I just picked up an GT from petsmart. It looks very nice but now that it's in my aquarium, I noticed something "new". Their is a whole bunch of "holes"(not like holes but indentation) on his snout and maybe on his chin but it's hard to tell their. This is my first GT, is this normal? The "holes" look semetrical, I'm not sure what to do, hes been in my tank an hours and I'm alraidy freaken out. Hes about 2.5 inches long.

Please help.

I don't think it's HITH. It's a sensory thing.

I don't have a pciture your thinking of.I have them but their is no way of seeing what I'm talking about. My cam isn't that great...

I found this picture of a regular green terror I found on google: Look between the eye and the nose to see a few holes. Mine has a few more but they are just like the one in the picture.

Human Multi Vitamin? We talking Flint Stone stuff here? LOL. Will that effect my other fish? Is it safe?
