    ok guys, so here it is as promised. yes, it is 1 day late, but my laptop was dead and i need it to bluetooth the vid from my phone. the glass is really dirty sorry. Nemzilla was hungry but not as ferocious as i have seen him before. it parts of the vid you can see his white mouth. unfortunately, the fish stopped squirming around causing nemzilla to relax. (normally if the fish goes crazy nemzilla does too) but here ya go guys

    sorry its long i kept thinking he was finally going to eat it but he never did until 1 minute after i stopped recording of course :p




    it kinda seems like the stings have a sort of paralytic effect

    well... he is deep sea so i have him under my stock 9w pico lamp and he seems to like it. he is extremely hardy as far as i can tell. i have high nitrates in that tank and he doesnt seem to mind. he is venomous though and it has been reported that a sting kills human flesh.
