Nope...still on hunger strike...nearly a month...:(

Was grown on goldfish, what can I say?

How about now? Mine isnt two feet but probably a foot and a half.....still on hunger strike also....:irked: It was getting feed market shrimp...my aro goobles it up and if I drop one in the CK's area he guards it from both the aro and the pleco......eventually the pleco gets it and takes it to his side of the tank.....it's been 3 weeks....how long can they go while still being considered healthy? This sucks...all my other ck's ate like pigs.....gerrr......:screwy:
 
nice ck

Any updates Miguel?
 
awesome ck. Cant wait to try my hands at them.

on a side note. I dont think that raphael is no where near 12" If your ck is 2' that raphael is not even close to half the length when you look at the last picture. I call for a ruler measure. :D
 
I been waiting, I guess thanks for the updates Miguel? Seriously, this sucks, I asked for an opinion a few times.......here's a pix of my 1 and a half footer CK.

I may be wrong with the raphaels measurements, but then I am not versed in inches and staff...it is near 15 centimtres... a bit more...

CK has eaten 2 fish ( because I relented ) in 2 months...I am at odds with this one....

i see one thing that might work .... gorgeous tank setup..your ck has no where to hide...no where to call his own... can you put big cave or big log or anything actually that fits him and gives him shelter.. then you can take those big long tongs and hand him his dinner in private.. they are big babies... not the rough tough guys they look like.. they thrive on having a quiet place to call their own...i tried to find pic of him in the log ..but you can see the log in pic... when he does not want to come out i bring his special treats to him... :D:Dspoiled i know but it works..

Interesting....Mine seems to guard the market shrimp if its in its area but not eat it.....I did toss in a feeder and he snapped at it....but in the end my aro got it......I only put a kissing guarami in there......it was attacking all my friends fish sucking the slime off them and once one of his fish died....he came over with it....first time any of my fish seen live foods. Its almost a month and my CK still hasnt eaten.
