A little update from me on my 6 dwarf snakehead babies from Nelly, I moved them over the weekend, they were in a big 52" tank in the hallway, but they were so lost in that tank & because they were out in the hallway, I didnt get to spend much time with them.

They are now in a 3ft tank in the lounge & after a big session of sulking at being moved, they are now so much happier, because there is more cover in the smaller tank, they are much less shy & i'm sure I caught two of them watching telly last night, here are a few pics, please ignore the smudge marks, I must remember to check for childrens finger prints before taking pics in future lol

I now have a 52" tank which I dont know what to do with, any suggestions??
