Caquetaia Myersi

[bassetman]

So the Myersi decided to come out and look around today. he changes colors alot he can blend very well against rocks and such.or be yellow. eats like a whale the huge mouth opens and the food is gone...all of it. he is still in the isolation tank.

he's super cool.... can't wait to see him grow into an adult! nice fish

 

[bassetman]

Watching him eat is, Impressive, makes me glad i am not a small fish.

 

[lloyd378]

i am guessing like a large mouth bass...... i got to observe them eating live fish in college in one of my science classes. wish we could keep native WA fish in tanks, because they are epic.

 

[bassetman]

very much like that. the entire front of the fish opens and sucks it in...mouth closes. game over

 

[iandraco]

cool fish

 

[bassetman]

thanks Ian, one of the Kigoma females is holding again.

 

[Addicted2CAs]

Very nice! I'm sure he eats like the Kraussii, ALL the time and they never stop!

 

[bassetman]

and he likes big food.

I use to have one that grew too around 10" while i had him. Sweeet fish. I personally like them because they are like the south american counterpart to a datnoid. compressed body, huge mouth, kinda triangle shaped... haha

 

[bassetman]

He watches me all the time......I get the feeling he is laughing as I play mw3.

 

[bassetman]

And yes very like a datnoid. I like the angular look of them and the speed of his strike at food.
