Poor jars!

[prophets]

A few hours ago noticed my 2 jars and tinfoil are messed up a little.

Little jar 6.5~" wned:

bigger jar 8" wned:

Tinfoil 5.5" wned:

All caused by this little bi**h!

She was calm as hell..now that she's 4+" shes become like

Unbelievable. Little GT became such a bit*h. Must be on the rag or something. Although she doesn't mess with the silver or pleco. Go figure.

At least she's living up to her namesake.

She did such a good job that the 8" jar doesn't even swim to the other side of the tank that she's always cruising at.

[Tongue33]

Whats even funnier..the GT is only about 3.5" or so.

This is a jar that I acquired from a knucklehead that didn't take care of it. Back in 11/2006, which is what re-ignited my fishkeeping. Haven't kept fishes for over 15 years, and when I saw that lil jar it just pee'd me off and I took it off of this person.

Needless to say, it was in bad shape, so I took my time and nursed it back for about 2 months. He has a slight angle when he swims, his right eye never healed up properly..so he's partially blind in that eye. But aside from that he's come a long away from 3.5" in f***ed condition to a 8" piggy.

Same thing happened to me. One day my 4" GT decided to start harrassing my 6" Jar. It got pretty bad so I got rid of the GT. Not to make it a financial thing, but I wasn't about to allow an $8 GT kill my $40 Jar. Besides I like the Jar a whole lot better. It was an experiment that failed..........

Same thing happend to my work mates Jar, he had a 9" jar and bought two 2.5" GTs and they ganged up on the jar something shocking. A few years down the track (this is when I met him) his 8x3x2.5 was owned but 3 fish, no others could be added. The jar now around 20" controlled around 4ft of the tank and the two Gts which were a breeding pair (M=9", F=7") owned a 3ft section with a 1ft 'ope water' area.
I'd seen his fish a few times and he always told me he planned to get a 75 for the GTs but never did. One day my mate came to work said he said he found one of his fish dead. I instantly thought the GTs had some how killed the Jar. Then he muttered, well I found half a fish and I have no idea what happend to the female.

Jar 1, GTs dead

I am quite surprised at how long the Gts lasted, nothing looks as cool as seeing a 7" and 9" Gt fight off a 20" jar which is trying to still thier fry, and actually manage to chase it away.
