Unfortunately Kaleeko passed away a few months ago 
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

*cheers*
Yes unfortunately Kaleeko did pass away, but I visit him often. He has a nice resting place
As for Nala she's pretty awesome.. fed her a huge crayfish the other night, and omg did she go to town! Needless to say, she was a very happy puffer after that.

I just love the clear black outline Nala has around her red stripes! She has such a special print for a fahaka!

Wow she's a monster. Monster is size that is
. Also love the aquascape too and still can't believe you have cichlids still alive in her tank.

I've moved the pricing argument to another thread. It does not belong in this one so if you're so inclined please continue it where it belongs.
Nala and her tank are both gorgeous.
