Brian The Mbu

[SMcCreath]

Thought you might like to see some pictures of Brian, now he has settled in. I picked him up on Christmas Eve - best Christmas present!

He likes to hunt live shrimp and he is very sociable. I spend most of my time sitting talking to him ( I need a social life really! )

He's 3" long not including his tail.

I see he's in a Juwel tank though, are you aware of how big they get?

Thank you for your kind comments.

Yes, the blue gravel is not so nice is it? It was a present from my enthusiastic brother, who very kindly went out and selected it for me. As I knew I would be upgrading the tank very soon after getting Brian, I didn't have the heart not to include the awful gravel, particuarly as it would only be for such a short time.

I was very lucky to have been given a large 6ft tank for Christmas which I am currently cycling for him move into when it is mature enough for him and I have spent a lot of time researching the types of plants that are navtive to the area Brian is from. I have selected sand for the bigger tank. I have also included 'patches' of natural gravel to break up the area a bit.
