Osteoglossum bicirrhosum Part 2

Here's an update on Mushu No. 5......
Mushu03In two months he's grown from 6.5" to 9.5" (no phalic pun intended Tu Anh!). I've stopped feeding him live minnows because he seems to literally grow overnight after a live meal....I can't afford to get him a big tank right now, so I'm trying to slow down his growth rate....I don't think it's possible to "bonsai" an Arowana though....Here's a pic of him attacking one of his foodMushueating pellets.....






Here he is posing with his new custodian and buddy Phillipe (pronounced Filipay ala Espanol)Mushu08.....
Phillipe doesn't come out from his hiding spot behind the filter much, he was traumatized when Mushu tried to eat him that one time....they're friends now, but Phillipe likes to maintain a respectful distance.....Angelo de los Angeles
