Picked up my new GSP today!

Post by Brandon8521 »

Picked up my new gsp today. Havnt named him yet and I just finished aclimateing him and he is in his new home. Im gonna attempt to feed him tomorrow he's not as skinny as my first one was when i got him so it must not have been too long since he was caught. Wish me luck.

Thnx, yah right now he is generally being a glass pacer and then he will explore a little and go back to glass paceing and so on. So it's impossible to get a pic. Maybe I can get one if he decides to eat tomorrow.

Took some pics with my IPhone they suck but here they are he doesnt like the phone and hasnt got used to me at all yet. I was able to get him to chow down on a nightcrawler and a few hours later he had some nice dark brown redish poop comeing out (lol i wanst sitting around waiting i just walked in during his business moment.) So, so far so good for IPs. I hate my substrate but i havnt been able to talk the wife into letting me get rid of the easter egg colored gravel yet as soon as i can talk her into it i will be putting some crushed coral in there.

Don't feel bad for catching your fish poo. When we here get a new puffer, just about all of us are peeking in regularly hoping to see healthy, dark poo. And yes, some of us have even sat there waiting for it.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.
