lapin · Apr 5, 2019

On a scale of 1 to 10 how far open do you think the mouth is open. 1 Being normal and 10 being dead.
Its been out of the shipping box 6 hours

Like a 3, You just got it so I wouldn’t stress over it too much. Don’t feed it or mess with it.

Nice mag , how long did you acclimate it ? , I think that’s a major factor with these guys , I had mine in a bucket with no light for about 3 hours before I put him in the tank.
