My new boarder

The organization is like a tree full of monkeys, all on different limbs at different levels. Some monkeys are climbing up, some down. The monkeys on top look down and see a tree full of smiling faces. The monkeys on the bottom look up and see nothing but a&&holes. |

We called him Maggi, because he is the size of a chicken stock cube, and looks a bit like one too LOL
Not a fish most people would recommend because he has the ability to release toxins in the water if harassed or killed.
This one is very calm, non agressive and just buzzes around the tank like a tiny bumble bee. *Fastinating to watch. *He will get bigger eventually and by that time I'll have another species tank set up for him.

Jason,
You mean in the tank I already have set up? If so then yes I already have a couple of other fish and I'll post some pictures soon.
If you mean in a separate tank, then no not yet, but it will be an experience, that's for sure :-)
John
