here is my male sailfin I picked up a couple of months ago...he eats alot of shredded vegetables,fruits and mealworms etc...small mice. but they will eat more vegetables as they get older. he loves soaking in warm water...he started to get his blue on his crest..he damage his snout a couple of days ago..but healing great as u can see in the 7-8pics. he is close to 2ft long..a large water container should be provided,clean water and warm.
