Any updates Tequila?

Dominate male is doing well, hasn't excepted any food yet but otherwise doing well.

When I gaff the co-dominate male, the one that keeps causing all the trouble I'll make sure to video it. I'll get close ups of the mouth as i rip out the upper and lower (crushing pads) and then boil away the skin off the head and jaws so that you can see "THE TEETH" that you claim - someone else told you don't exisit. The very same TEETH that ripped up my thumb. The PADS as you call them aren't set into the jaw bone as TEETH are.


Argue, why would I argue with you. Your a fare minded dude - you call them as someone else see them , right?......Right.

Thought I would add a couple of shots of my RTGG.

Pic earlier today.

Nice photos. I'm just wondering the size and if you wanna keep those plants in the tank intact? You know eventually the RTGG will start eating them, right.

Glad to see the big guy fulled through, great effort on the save
I see your paying close attention to my links then when I linked ' All GG have teeth to a point some are so small to see and internal' Or something like that.

How about a picture of the thumb instead

Growing nicely I see. I like the recent photo best.

Any tank details?

Captive breeding is rare but has been done, there a two problems firstly the size is a pain as they need lots of space for a community and the second is they are bubble nesters, they are bred in ponds in the far east and bred for food as apparently they taste nice. Take the salmon lovely looking fish and also taste nice.

i read that a female can lay 20,000 eggs during each breeding. dont know the truth to that but thats some serious money that can be made.

Tequila , glad that you decided not to cook your friend.

It would only be a serious amount of money if you can find a US/European market for them as a food source.
