I took plenty of pics while he was still in the bag cause i was afraid he would hide and I wouldnt see him again till the next day..... I was wrong lol he was swimmin all over the tank after about 15 minutes

No idea how old it is. I asked the fish catcher guy and he said they've had it for 3 weeks and it was that size when they got him. Since I've seen him there it has been in 4 different tanks and each time it moved the price was lower, i think they deduct the price for each time they drop it! The kid bragged to the clerk that he didn't drop it this time..... the nerve.

I got him yesterday and after watching him for hours. I haven't seen him even look at the other fish, even tho he is very sinister looking lol My gourami doesn't have any problems with him either. Usually he tries to rip up odd looking things that i put in the tank, as i learned with the little frog.

I actually don't know if it is a he or she yet, i can't quite count the spines very well.
