Most likely to be an eaten Endlicheri being kept with the RTC...

ok cool, if its still there tomorrow I'm going to grab it, they only want 15 for it, i can keep it in my 10 gallon for a little bit, then move it into my 55g will this get along with my ornate?

 

[tokyogasmask]

55 will be nowhere near big enough.
It will outgrow that very very quickly. (An Ornate needs the same footprint too.)

well for now, in less then a year i will be getting a bigger tank
