s there any such thing as a "tame" snapper? I think any would gladly take a chunk out of you if you tried to grab it.
Awesome animal though, shame you dot have it in a huge indoor aquarium it would look amazing walking arround a 10x4x3 (LxWxH) i your living room lol
Infact.............lol

he would take your had off if not careful . but he is fairly easy to handle . just got to remember not to put your hand in front of his face . probably would loose a finger are 2.
