just got one its about two inches but its shy really shy is that ok

[jason142]

ya, it will take a little while for it to get used to all the movement and the new environment. Give it a couple of days and it will be fine.

where did you get it?

If it came from a lfs it will take longer than if you got it from a local hobbyist's tank

[sgriffin760]

lfs i have always wanted one and finally 2 years later got it (now it hides) so just shy thats cool.... does it have a special diet or any thing have not read anything just seeing if you have any ideas thanks sean

[jason142]

Nope, nothing special just foods for carnivores. As it gets bigger it will be a very aggresive feeder.

I don't know if I would trust it to eat out of my hand but they do get quite the personality as they get older. I had one a long time ago and loved it. Just an example of how aggressive they feed mine once bit a huge chunk out of my porcupine puffers head when they were going after the same piece of food, so like I said don't know if I personnaly would hand feed it. Also, forgot to mention that you should feed it clams on the half shell once and awhile.

[sgriffin760]

clams and what is half shelf its just really shy it will eat flake food too right i try to google stuff about it but its just bettter to ask some one who has had first hand

[jason142]

Any LFS will have clams on a half shell. It just means that clam is only on half a shell and is going to be frozen.
