It's like 60s at night here and I still have a hoodie on under my lined jacket I would die in 30 degree weather

I grew up in Wisconsin and rode motorcycle through a winter once. No pride involved when you are riding to work on a motorcycle in a snowmobile suit....LOL!

It's here! Floating now!

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Haha awesome! Picture!

 

[TLTGF]

Can't get one yet - black bag while floating and now lights are too dim. Give me a bit. I will say this - stunning fish, size of my thumb nail!!!!

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Hahah wow hes a small guy! How fast will he grow?!?

 

[TLTGF]

No clue, but man now the 29 looks like a 100 cube!

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Haha so do you have 2 very small anglers in this tank now?

 

[TLTGF]

Nope, this is the one and only and it's going into the 10 QT / frag tank first for about 4-6 weeks while the 29 finishes cycling.

Here is a link to a video and some quick pics. In the last picture he is pretending to be a frag plug.

I will say this, the fish I got has to be the most amazing, interesting, and beautiful fish I've ever had. That being said, I have never been so scared of something bad happenning! $150 is a lot to drop on a fish, plus I would HATE to take something like this out of this world.

I am very pleased, and I'm ready for the challenge that lies ahead!

That fish is BAD I so want to set up a nano now for one
