Hi Guys,

Just wanted to share an in tank video clip of my poly's!

They got startled up a bit at first, but then were very friendly (must've known my hand)

I hope you enjoy it.
 
Sweet video! Pretty cool perspective and I'm digging the ornates, great job!
 
That's a nice stock... I like that sen....

The ornate, is it bent or is it just me?

Thanks for the great feedback everyone, really appreciate it! Yeah, the big ornate is bent, although I have no idea why he came to be like this (it's a male, turned 6 years last aug 28).
The first pics I had of him way back 2006 he was straight then when he got bigger he became like this, is this the cause of the tank's size or constant perching? He doing that almost every day, and very attentive to my hand during feeding time.

The video was taken with a Lumix TS3, the GoPro Hero 2's budget has been postponed beucase of 4 new poly's lol.

@Gar88: the fatty sen? He's been with me for the better part of 3 years, very active and has a large appetite.

Tomorrow's water changing day so I'll try to take a closer picture of him ( has nice black spots and greenish color on his head)
 
Hahah he looks quite a roadrunner there lol...
And ye regarding the width of the tank... I was more concerned with the gars... What's the dimension on this tank...?

underwater camera = poly explosion haha. Neat perspective though. Might want to consider a wider tank for the endlis and ornate in the future :)

lol yeah, it's like they're thinking "he's taking vids and pics again ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnn!"

I've been planning for a larger tank for quite some time now, just hadn't had the space and money for it yet.

Thanks! The current tank is 48" x 18" x 18", it was very reasonable when I first got the guys but I guess they have outgrown this one.
I'm planning for atleast 60" x 24" x 24".
