If he keeps doing it ill probably have too, but not on this tank it would be too much work.
When I make my new tank for him ill paint the back and sides.
Anyway these are my observations from day1
- Great fish to sit and watch for hours on end
- Awesome body shape, great silver color to him
- A little skitish when I go near the tank
- Fussy eater
Sounds like a Jar to me!! I starved mine for a week and still couldn't get him/her onto pellets...*KrAmEr*;942758; said:If he keeps doing it ill probably have too, but not on this tank it would be too much work.

Congrats on the Jar.Looks very active and healthy.About the silver dollars.I used to have a small school of 4 and they would often sit still near the bottom all lined up in a row.
