Lorraine, have you tried using windows movie maker? or if you dont have a pc, photobuket also lets you edit the videos there. you can put them all together, make effects, add music or whatever.

BJ was putting on a show when I cleaned the tank and hooked up his new Vortech pump! This went on for hours!

 

[bluespotjawfish]

BJ is just amazing! And to think, I get to watch this from my living room!

The Misses, still not impressed!

Videos to follow...

 

[Dentoid]

You lucky dog!

 

[bluespotjawfish]

Here are the videos. When I turn the vortech pump to feed mode, he hangs out a bit longer...





PS - I have lucky dogs too! :goofy:

Just beautiful Lorraine. I love how he looks around in all directions to see if the coast is clear first. You can see it takes a lot of effort, too. Man, is he fast when he zips back into his burrow!

 

[bluespotjawfish]

About 90% of the photos I take are blurs because he is so fast. Many of those are upside down or sideaways. It is amazing how fast he dives back into the den.

 

[Dentoid]

Where is the Misses in relationship to this ostentatious display? Can she even see his advances?

 

[bluespotjawfish]

10 to 12" away in plain sight! It is amazing, she just hangs out in her den like nothing is going on! All the other fish are excited and dart in front of him. I think it is also strange that he doesn't go more towards her den. He just darts out in front of his own den.

 

[Dentoid]

Well, at least she is maintaining a lady like image!

Couldn't sleep Lorraine?

I just saw some bsj at my LFS and i was tempted to get 2 but is there a way to tell male/female? they had them in separate cups floating in the tank.

Be very very careful when buying 2. If you get 2 males, they will fight to the death very quickly. Your best bet is to get the two that look the most different. It is said that the males have a larger jaw since they are mouth brooders.
As always when purchasing thses fish be sure to see them eat and check carefully for any injury or discolleration. Starting with a healthy fish is step one. Step 2 is to keep the tank COMPLETELY covered at all times.
