Is it an adult?
how long have you had it?
very colorful?

 

[dockery07]

No he is not an adult yet. I have had him about 6 months. Great personality. He started out smaller than the naso and now he is bigger. I am debating on moving him to the 220 once it is up an running, but I think he likes his home. He was kind of skinny when I got him but he eats 3x's a day and is fat and happy now.
