This fish has the most personality out of any of my other critters. She'll come up to the top of the water and open her mouth like a bird when she's ready to eat so she has me pretty well trained. Reminds me of a cat I know...hmmmm

Very, very pretty!

Wow - she's beautiful also !!! How big is she ? I read that they can get up to 14 inches long ! I'm guessing she's already spoken to you about a larger tank ? LOL

She's pretty much full grown I would say 12-13" She's all by herself in a 40 Gallon, but I do often think she would be happier all by herself in my 125

WOW - she's big and beautiful ! How long have you had her ? She's gorgeous.

wow, amazing fish! beautiful colours, and yes, how long have you had her?

pentiumburner · 10-28-2006, 06:06 PM

I've had her now over 2 years. She was about 7-8" when I bought her at a great Mom & Pop type of LFS in my small town.

Congrats on such a beauty. And so well trained... Opps, that's you right

hehehee *you know the cat taught her how to train you.... *
Any way we can get a full shot of her?

Here you go, not the best but's she's a quick little thing.

You can really get an appreciation for the size of her mouth in that shot.
