Meet "Bumper"

We really really wanted one of these....but weren't really sure that it was a good idea....they are slow, eat alot, poop alot, hmmmm why not?!

So at Safari, he was lookin at me, I was lookin at him...and he came home....We asked Zach what his name was and he told us "Bumper" so it stuck. He is (of course) eating well, a bit shy as there are fast fish in the tank, and we do have to specialize his feeding a bit so he gets some but he is well! The Rabbit fish and he...well the Rabbit doesn't like him...tried to take a few tastes at first but "Bumper" is no worse for wear. He is very inactive during the day, but evening and night he is busy! When we first put him in the tank I think all the hermits and snails had a heart attack as they were all picked up and tasted then spit back out....no cleanup crew will survive for long but that's ok.....here he is his glory!
