My First Successful Hand Feeding!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
These are my 11 reds in a 210 gal. Up til now they refused to eat from my hand, I'm so excited they finally had the balls to go for it!
 
Glad to see u still got ur fingers. That black skirt tetras the real boss of the tank, I can't tell lol.
 
Cool!

That single tetra swimming amongst the Ps is pretty amusing.

I really like that plant carpeting on top of the substrate!

yes the black skirt was one of the original fish that I cycled the tank with. It has been in there since the reds were only an inch and a half. Apparently it is too intimidating to eat!

Thanks! The substrate is just some outdoor fake grass that I cut to fit. I wanted to try something different and so far I really like it.
 
I saw an one-eyed soldier.
You sure did. He was missing that eye when I got him at 1.5". Months later the others decided eat most of his head. I was gonna put him down but he seemed so eager to live so I let him be and kept a close eye on him. Now he is the meanest SOB in the tank!
