New CK

Nice PU. That one will just look better and better with age. Congratz!

They are notoriously shy fish. I miss mine he was beaten to death by some oscars who began to spawn. I wish I would have got to him in time.

It took mine about 2 months, but he never goes into hiding anymore. I got him @ about 2.5" and he was skittish as hell. Couldn't walk by the tank without him runnin' for cover. Upgraded his living arrangements (10 to a 20 gal) and he comes out all the time. Only about 4" too.

to me, 2 months sounds like forever, but i cant wait until he finally does come out of his cave. i have him housed in a 40g breeder along with an albino senegal.

i have two and yours markings are way cooler. my 2 are beating up an alagator gar. but not for long, gar is getting bigger.

i dont think my ck was ever shy but he has always been king of the tank. be careful with your tank size because they can explode in size. mine went from 4" in febuary to 14" today (november)

P.S. you will love your CK they rock
