It is Brian, and at 15" still small from what I have read about it...in the wild it grows to 36"! Fortunately the tank I will inherit with this cool cat is 500gal and 10'*3'*2.5'...it should get bigger and have plenty of room to move as it grows!

I know mate, in super pumped. I've been cleaning this tank twice a month for 18 months and this was the first time I had ever seen it. I have seen its tail back in the rock pile, but never it's head or body. 1 of the auto feeders over balanced and tipped over so when I arrived to discover this I put a bunch of pellets in and during the ensuing feeding frenzy this guy came right out and hoovered up a bunch of food. So cool! 8)
