Get a split from a fellow hobbiest for a better chance of keeping one long term.

This is how I got my BTA.....a split from another split in captivity and mine has split 3 different times
Have had my LTA just as long and it was wild caught of course.

Green. 1yr + some. He's huge, I wait for split. I have better lighting about two paydays away and I'm hoping this helps.
Hoping it helps alot of things!
Viper, those are nice.
