My Rope Snake (my avatar)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
mine sounds like yours....I love mine, he also loves to swim in my hand when I feed.:icon_naruto10:
 
I have had him a year now, no escapes yet (knocking on head).

Anyone ever have a gar try to eat a bichir? Last few days my gar has been snapping at my bichir when he swims by
 
Gar's feeding response IME is very high, any movement of smaller fish(especially silver ones) in their area will kick in that response. What are the size differences between the gar and bichir?

They are about the same length, approx. 6", the bichir is alittle thicker.
 
Nice Ropey!

I just got one the other week. I love him. I give him a beefheart recipe i make and he chows on that.
No escape attempts yet, but i taped everything up.
