I used to have one. It was hilarious!!! Anytime a fish swam near it, it would shake its pom poms to ward off the fish. It looked like a boxer excited after winning a boxing match. _________ Curt  | |

does anyone know how active these guys r or do they just stay in the rock? the first one is in the rock, but the second is still outside a bit, do they need some time to get used to the tank? thanks | |

Bruce,
I thought mine was dead for the first two weeks. I couldn't find it anywhere. Then it got used to it's surroundings and was out most of the time. | |
