GSP George and his first Ghost Shrimp

Post by melbell86 »

Here is a pic of George after his first live ghost shrimp meal! He bit one in half, left it, and the destroyed the other one. there is one still hiding in the tank but he got SO full that he left him alone! More round and happy than i have ever seen him before. I had have george for almost one month now, and he is doing great. His fin is completely grown in again, and his color is more green than when i first got him. He also has the most interesting pattern on his head, its like a broken circle with a dot in the center, almost makes me want to call him target :) Enjoy!

dead shrimp + shrimp with no tail after the feeding

If you look at the marking from the other side it looks like a winking smiley face. Like this ;-)
