| | Moderator | Thanks Alex,
there were some scrabbles (lol is that actually a word?)when I introduced them to the JDs but they have all calmed down and actually are getting along fine now.  Not to say they will have to be watched in the future tho... |

I think these are the Gold Saum, whereas some are Red Saum. I would have preferred the Reds, but.. beggers cant be choosy.. my source is very limited to fish around here. The GTs are about 3 inches or 3.5 at the moment and I think they are pretty young. They are very curious and tho they hide when I come to the tank... they slowly inch over the rocks and take a peek at me. One actually had me laughing the other night. It had to show me how tough it was.. I dont know if it was trying to convince me or itself. It slowly came to the front of the glass, puffed out its gills and started to shake its body back and forth while biting the glass. Ooooo such a widdle toughie.. hope I didnt insult it while I laughed heheh...  |
