    OOOHHHH, so that's what those little jumpers look like.

    They are very nice looking.

    Nice fish. They do get on the big side for a 20g though so be aware of that. Also make sure you get him eating frozen food, if it's not already. The sandbed in a 20g will not sustain that fish forever.

    Great new addition. Be sure your rocks are secure because they dig under everything. I have one in my 55 and he is very personable, he will come up and bite me when its feeding time. On second thought maybe thats not personable but at least it doesnt hurt. Mine also will move the hermit crabs away from his burrow if they get too close, but will share his burrow with my firefish.
