    Default Identify?

    I got Mr. Cat about 2 years ago at Petsmart. He was about 1 1/2" at the time and is now about 9".

    Anyone have an idea what he is? Petsmart has no idea and says they never sold anything like this. Sorry for the blurry photo..

    Awesome! Thank you Ryan!!!

    I named him Mr. Cat because he has a brilliant personality. He actually plays with the Africans in his tank... He may be bored so I was thinking about getting another of his kind...

    I believe they were but they are gone now. I got a bunch of different fish from Jack a few years ago and they all died except two orange Cichlids. Now I have a tank full, lol

    Those Jewels were pretty cool. Kind of a deep burnt orange color and not as as aggressive as the ones in the photo.
