This is the first try at using a small photo tank/box. Both fish can from the inlet on a local pond. Again sorry if the pix quality is low. I'm Trying!!! :blush:

O yea, they'll be lunch if I'm not watchful. He's not much bigger the those pictures, and thats about 3weeks ago. The cat been happy eating glass worms and brine and chasing around ghost shrimp..

Theres about 8 or more daters in there so I'm not concerned if he pics off a few small ones. Problem is he's still too small to fend off some 3-4" bluegill and pseeds. I figure he'll stay in that tank till he's big enough to start picking off those sunfish. From there either to my 90 or the outdoor tanks, years away, not to concerned yet.
