beautiful cat, how is his temperament?
He doesn't move much during the day but at night he is very active.
It will eat anything that will fit in his large mouth like most large cats from the Amazon.

Is he easily spooked or calm-natured?
He's pretty calm but likes to hide under stuff. Now that he is getting bigger he is coming out more.

Here are some pics from my cellphone today:
Your cat looks really nice, but the Goliath needs a bigger home. I'm surprised it hasn't killed itself yet by bashing itself against a side of the tank. That's what happened to mine in a 240 gallon tank. What size tank is that? 75-100 gallon?

The tank is 72x30x24...you've seen it before.

The goliath rarely bashes into the sides though.

I have an 800 gallon in storage but no place to set it up right now...it's 120x48x32.

Oh ok, it looks like from the picture that his jaw is messed up from hitting the sides of the tank, but maybe it's just the angle. His fins are pretty messed up though. Who is picking on him? The 800 gallon tank will be very nice. Time to hit the parents up to put it in their house. LOl

The goliath was moved in last weekend so it got a little thrashed in the process. But no worry, it's a quick healer.

I've been looking for a nice house, but it's taking time...that's where the tank will go eventually
