He thought about it...... Then remembered about size limits, and I don't think the excuse 'but it's cute, I don't wanna eat it... Yet' will get him far. I know in nth qld u can buy barra finlings for tanks, can u get snapper/ dhu round here?
damn! would kill to get one that size in with my barra cod haha, totally agree tim-o, baby sambos make a great tank subject, had a tiny one for a while but it outgrew my tank so i released it back from where it came, blackwall reach.
also had the bar cheek trout in my thumbnail, sent over from a shop in qld, was way too aggressive and was trying to eat the cod which was 5 times its size, he was regrettfully moved on to a mate as i had the cod 1st. :D
haha it readily snaps at halco twisties & small jigs, had to try it out after sea-kem suggested it, stopped after it spat one out and chipped a bit of glass off the inside of its tank.
