g;day guys
from New Zealand here
I've had my RES George for about a month hes pretty cool!
He's got a 300L tank, so its like the ocean for him heh and he lives with two Plecostoumous.

(sorry i originally posed that at the bottom of someone elses thread hehe opps)

Where in New Zealand are you from? I visited once.


yeah, im sure one day he will eat them, but they grow alot faster than he does atm, so they are bigger :) hehe

and i'm from Dunedin, near the bottom of the sth island.

Yes, they should be bigger than their heads.
