Chaca Chaca hes an ADULT and about 7 inches. Thats about all he does except when he is under the sand. He will wait for food then explode up wards and catch his prey. Starting tomorrow, I will monitor the PH daily to see how fast the chacas digestive juices can alter the PH in the tank. The tank will be stocked with feeders for a while to act as a barometer in the event the PH drops to far since the feeders are more sensitive to a PH drop than the other fish. Fortunately most fish except for the Chaca are considered a pest since they are numerous in their native land and hard to kill.:evil: Some can ask "why such a booring fish as the frog mouth?" Well think about it. With most things is it the daily routine things you admire or the exceptional rare things that make you stop and look? The Chaca may not do much but when he does do is well worth the wait.





oxyeleotris marmorata I have 2 of these at about 5 inches. They walk along the bottom of the tank when moving and rarely swim. They are very hostile to anything that comes near it. There speed is incredible when feeding and they are quite powerful. I named the 2 rhino and dino since that is what they look like when walking around on 'patrol.'

Anguilla marmorata , my fresh water mottled eel is around 10 inches and always out except when I am getting pics. :apoc: He is a great hunter and loves live food. He caught a feeder too large for it, swallowed what it could and pointed itself down in the sand and spun it like a drill bit (a death role) to rip it to pieces quite effectively. The second feeder was too large entirely. After a few minutes of 'drilling' he let go of the fish save for the tail. One of the gobies came up and bit the feeder in half :bigO: save for the tail section that the eel finished off.

Pics are from a web cam. Better ones later.



Got pics of the eel!!! These guys get over 6 feet and can and will routinely check for any escape route out of the tank. He eventually will get a tank to himself when he is bigger. He won't be pencil thin when he gets to adulthood. More like a big beefy moray that as far as I can see has no teeth.Click her for a pic of an adult I'm guessing is 4 -5 foot I don't want to infringe on anyone elses property(Pics.)







I got all of these fish from Franksaquarium.com. This by far, bar none is the best fish shipment I've ever recieved. I am very impressed. This is the first time I ever recieved fish that are large healthy fish from anyone. These are not little delicate fish barely bigger than fry. They are adults or nearly so. They are active, happy and eating feeders already except for the Chaca at least I didn't see him eat. I very highly recommend Frank to anyone. He was very helpful, as excited as I was about all this and able to locate my highly sought after perfect box of fish. If you ever are looking for an oddball fish Frank is the guy to ask. My cam does not do them justice.

:kewl: Cool additions!

Awesome fish, I'd like a chaca chaca some day :)

Gross fish! but you should film it feeding and show us :laugh:
