    I wonder if it will change color according to its environment. I've read that they do that?

    I think what amcarrig said is true, its seems to change different shades of yellow depending on what it is next to.

    I recently converted some mollies and guppies over to saltwater so that it can still hunt from time to time. It is still cheaper though to feed frozen silversides, this guy could surely eat four mollies at a "sitting".
