Post subject:  My mate muzza

I just realised how photogenic my mate muzza is.................. I wish the tank was clean but it had drips all over it. guests freak out when the fish splash in the dark. i have water stains on the wall 3 meters (10 feet) away!

would anyone liek muzza jnr? he is about half the size of muzza snr and is getting bullied quite a bit. they are a fun fish to have and he will recover from any scrap marks he has had inflicted from muzza snr.

$10 pick up.

yep, put 3 goldies in once, they crapped themselves and hid in the corner, tehn realised that the cod were not interested. spent a day roaming the tank right in front of them.

next morning there was one terrified goldie hiding in the corner.

i have found that they like to eat alot every so often. dont really respond well to food every day. lots of it gets wasted. once a week though is fun to watch and nothing gets wasted. (pellets i mean)

decided tonight that i should adopt out muzza jnr as he was being moved about like a dolphins toy blow up ball.

We feed unwanted goldies, yabbies etc to ours. I would love to get a mate for it, but have no idea what sex it is and it would eat anything under 2 foot long.

two of the convcts in the 80L aquarium are breeding and bullying the other two large males who in turn bully a third smaller male. I decided to "save" the smaller male and transfer him to muzza's tank.

he like hiding behind the heater. muzza has no problems bashing the heater into the side of the tank to try and get to him.

the question is, while will have its demise first, the convict or the heater.

muzza isn't hugely fond of pellets and he's quite hungry. Its funny when he misses the mark and spits out a mouth full of gravel :shock:
