funny . mine never eats in front of us .... I have to throw the food in and walk away. I come back and the food is gone. funny little characters they are .
The ripsaw cat is around 12-13", sadly I think he's stunted. The LFS got him as a trade in, I bought him at 11" and he eats like crazy but he's barely grown. It turns at the LFS I bought him from had him in a 20g for around 8 months, who knows what tank he was in when he was traded.
So he still hides with his nose in the back corner. It's rather humorous that he spends most of his life like that. I think I'm going to pile some rocks up to try and force him out a little. This guy has grown a lot as well. I need to get a current measurement but he appears to be at least 15", probably closer to 16".
