Hello All,
Mr.T is doing good, enjoys his endless chasing of fish, there's food and space to go around, so far so good.
Changed water today, good time to snap a few pictures and a video.

Cool update. Is that uneaten pellets floating in the pictures?

Just walked outside, our cleaning lady talking and playing with the fish....Absolute funny to see how Mr.T. comes over, she talks to him, strokes his head, moves some floating pellets to his mouth, and he just likes it and keeps steady in front of her.
Amazing fish....

Sounds like he's getting pretty comfortable and fond of people. can't wait to see when the pond starts getting built!
He sure is comfortable from anything of what I can see.
One thing that jumped out is that he is not chasing the small fish much anymore. He swims around sure, waits in a corner, but just as easy, he starts swimming again and knows he's getting his food anyway.
Feeders I put in 2 weeks ago, are still mostly there.
Thinking of putting in some 4 inch Tilapia, they might be more attractive to hunt, but they are extremely fast moving fish, so they should have a fair chance and at the same time, they'd help tremendously in eating left over food.
It's one disadvantage of the pellets, Mr.T. chews on them and spills quite a lot in the process. So water gets a lot of food rubbish in it. The feeders are ok for that, but I guess I need more fast growing and eating fish, for which the Tilapia would be ideal.
If they get big enough, they can always go on the barbeque...lol.
Once that's in, I have a tank free at home to get an RTC big enough to put him in.
Not sure yet on the Climbing perches I got..maybe wait with those until the final pond is ready and I have places for them to hide in.
Can't wait indeed to close this thread and get onto the DIY/Pond building thread with updates.
Painting is finished, so there's only time and manpower that's in short supply right now.
Cheers,
Luc
