Hi,
Hamish is 26", and as you can see, very deep bodied!!!! The video was done in his old tank, he`s upgraded now, that was an 8 x 2 x 2, now he`s in a 9 x 3.6 x 2 so he has a much bigger turning circle.
It`s funny you should say about him looking like he wanted a kiss, he`s VERY friendly!! I can`t take any pictures of the other fish without his big face appearing in front of the camera, he looks to us when we wave to him and comes to the front of the tabk to see us.
His best mate the snakehead nudges him up for a swim around with him.
He realy is a fab fish, and yes, he does make light work of the clam, and cockles, crab etc.
Once gave him mussel in the shell and he became VERY ill, nearly lost him. We found out later on that the shell is poisonous.
