I sure am glad I feed my Tilapia! If my wife sees the BlueGill she'll NEVER go into the tilapia room!

As far as I know this damage occured on a 6 hour flight in total darkness, but more likely it happened shortly after being bagged.
Think Tilapia aren't tough? This guy only had a small bone where his tail was and lived over a week that way and never had a sign of fungus or infection.

Rainman you're going to get in trouble provoking greenie's like that! Nope, was just a little bluegill. I'm pretty sure they hate everything that's not one of their own.

Makes you wonder what happens when they go into a pond, or with the large space they don't go ravaging individual fish...

Fully agree. Maybe the open water is better for them, but it's interesting, and curious, when you watch them harass and destroy fish much bigger than them.

We're gonna have to put a tilapia and redear in together and see which is truly the nastiest!

As for the GSF, I do it to keep Jhap and Died's quick wit finely tuned, but they are either really mad at me or trying furiously to locate their target!

Yes, it's true we do on a rare occasion get mad.

But we always get even.

Jeff, Dave,

I am actually trying to make ammends to you poor Californians for the mis-guided enviornmental situation you must endure in your beautiful state.

Do a little research on who the first bike trail listed in this PDF is named after, and please remember, I couldn't choose my blood relatives. I'd say more but it would have to be in a PM (one tid-bit is VERY funny if not bizzare).

BTW, we share the same last name, he is my father's eldest brother's son.
