Yes, yes he does LOL!

He has been eating the snails in the tank, and I just gave him a few BWs and he ate those, so I am very happy he is doing so good, and he is very healthy
looking as well, I have seen vids of baby's were they are like bone rods , But samson is plumb

Awwww... I'm so happy for you both! I'd say keep the lights off but he doesn't seem stressed.

I know eh?, seems weird.. its like hes fine.. he's not showing any sighs of stress, hes swimming around the tank, hes eating.. he hasn't buried himself yet, I thought for sure he would, maybe at night he will?. I can't stop watching him, hes just so darn cute

Don

What is he eating? How big is he?

He's has been eating the small pond snails in the tank, and a few BloodWorms.. There's some small platy fry in the tank, he hasn't shown any intereted
in them at all, even when the fish were trying yo steal his blood worms LOL!

Samson killed 6 of the fahakas he was with in store be warned hes very aggressive. they isolated him last 3 days but he was best looking healthiest for sure of the bunch.
now that I got my nap in it can sink in that hes all fine an well lol

**edit** prolly just a species aggression doubtful hes ever seen another fish aside his own kind hehe, hes looking great hes about inch and half? hope he grows as fast as jabba did for me and keeps them beautiful colors.

LOL! thats to funny, he seems to be okay with the 4-5 platies in his tank ATM LOL! but if he eats them, I am okay with it.. I know they are fine as I raised
them.

We are going out for some shirp, I wana try it, see if he will like it.. I want to see about gettting another low ligth plant for his tank as well.. see when I get there..
