His Lordship, Sir Puddles

[Paul_MTS]

Today is a memorable day... a day we should all remember.

Today me and Hooli stand proudly on the mountain of accomplishment...

Firstly here are some pictures of his lordship...

Now to the good part...

Today for the first tie since we got him (4 days ago) he hand fed...

and a video to prove it...

Please note this was after he had already eaten some prawns from my hand... but Hooli didn't know how to work the camera and wsn't brave enough to use her fingers...

Thankyou from Sir Puddles and his royal servants...

Very cool!

Is your one nicer than CFC's? I got the impression that you couldnt put your hands in the tank..

 

[Paul_MTS]

He's our big bundle of lovable fun... our gentle giant...


Yep put the hands in the tank is fine as long as you don't make any sudden movements

Does his Lordship like playing with his little friends? Doing all the sorts of things a Lord should do with his subjects... dinner parties, hunting, playing bowls...

 

[Paul_MTS]

Thanks everyone His lordship thanks you all

He loves his little friends... they play kiss chase

 

[CFC]

Yours is a damn sight more friendly than mine then, mine bites the syphon when im doing water changes and electrocuted snails for fun when i put them in for clean up crew, theres no way i'd put my hands in there

 

[Paul_MTS]

Lol mine attacks the syphon tube too but he also likes swimming in nets

 

[CAC]

Great shot of his head too
How come this ones so tame, but CFC's isnt??? Kinda strange....
Are the fish swimming arround in there not eaten, or are they feeders?
How much did you pay for him if you dont mind me asking? Are they fast growers?

Thanks alot, and great (if not brave) video

Hah you call that hand feeding!? Those are tongs.... so your "Tongfeeding" him, not handfeeding.

[Paul_MTS]

like any (larger) fish really, they will have there own personalities, like Oscars for example, there's no way you can predict how one of them will turn out!

I did originally put them in as feeders, but after 1 night he hadn't bothered with them, although he was very inquizitive with them, sniffing them out etc.

Read the post properly space he took a chunk of prawn from my hand before we got the camera out, thanks for putting him straight Gnatfish

i want some of those tongs they would make training to hand feed so much easier
