Not at all what I expected it to look like. I like the darker brown with the spots going through into/onto the tail, very cool.

No joke! Mine tried to swallow a 7"-8" Senegal last week... It could only get about 1/4 of the Senegal down the throat, but doesn't stop it from trying. Ended up suffocated the Senegal for nothing!Norbert;4396376; said:Haha, very nice, that's what I was thinking too but couldn't find any. I ended up getting a few black koi, if this guy is 7" they are about 6" threw them in everything seemed fine walked by the tank a few hours later and he seriously had ones head in his mouthzero chance of eating this fish but he sure was trying, koi was fine after I stuck my hand in there and spooked the perch, I put the koi in the pond until they get a little bigger but I think that one will need therapy the rest of his life
They can change their color and the contrast of their pattern very quickly. Mine is usually all dark like this but sometimes looks silvery with brown spots or even silvery with very faint spots.Cookie*420;4396391; said:

I was really surprised mine could hang onto the koi...seems like a fish that big, or as big as your sen, could have gotten away but man he had ahold of it and wasn't letting go!Whoa!! what did that one eat?fugupuff;4397518; said:

These guys are pigs! Mine started gulping shrimps last night. They've been tasting Hikari pellets... They're much better than those Chinese perch, which is so hard to switch off live feeders
