richms Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 They are cool, but often they will just park themselves up underneith something like an overhanging piece of driftwood etc so you dont see them often. That one being so big may have a harder time doing that so should be good. My one would let me rub its belly sometimes.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
