Warning: This is a bloody Experience of Monster fish keeping.

[Acwee]

[charlesT]

Guess your aro very familiar with you and your hand.. Me on the otherhand, whenever I put my hand into my tank, my aros will feel threatened and panic mode and start dashing.. Don't really like to see that

[ymmij]

Thank you for the precautionary advises!

Brilliant! How can i be so dumb...

If i'm not wrong, yellow powder cause cancer, if consume or open wound contact? Bro, she knows that i'm alpha. we sleep in the same room

hmm maybe cohabit with aro since young is the best way to pacify the fish. FYI my tank is in my room. Just like LFS, the fish gets to see many people walking in and out, kinda use to it?

Stay alert buddy!

lol my aro is hungry i guess.. the tfb i have always snatch for food

hence he is very fast when i go near the tank.. nowadays i will put my hand in slowly liao
cos i hand feed my aro, so he associate my hands with food

Tot only humans, even aro are tempted by finger foods

[streetsmart73]

ts, that looks like some nasty bites from your aro.

btw, very handsome rtg

do, take care of the wounds. me like your witty narrative
