Jumping Ceylon

Post by Beun »

Our good old (10 years) Ceylon named "Goof" has been spoiled again this weekend. Only he had to work for his food this time:

Including tail he is about 18 cm. Tanksize 150 liter.

They grow very very slowly though. They say Ceylons can reach 20 cm, but I think this is about as big as they get (never seen bigger).
