New Cat

[Angler]

Some pics of my new cat:

He is about 5 inches. I dig this fish so far. Great personality. As you can see, he is a tad scratched up still from being picked on at the LFS.

Thanks guys.

He has eaten pretty much everything I have put in the tank - mainly shrimp, Massivore, and NLS.

I got two more yesterday. They are smaller than this guy. My Odoe was looking at them with a hungry eye, so I had to take them out of the 125 and put them in a growout for now. Hopefully they fatten up quickly.

Killer - how has the growth rate on your three been?

you may see some conspecific aggression, they will claim there territories and push each other around.
