yeah - the small one is getting pretty chubby. thats a he. i only have one tank - and as you can see, its not very big. i am hoping to get a bigger tank in the future though. i just throw goldfish in the tank and they would get it. but my smart ass parents kept giving them ALOT of goldfish even though i told them not to. the small one is VERY GIFTED at catching goldfish - and will catch 20-30 of them no trouble. :/

:Your RES does look pretty chubby. What do you feed her? Is there any way you could feed them in seperate tanks? Also, in the picture with the two it looks like the tank is kinda small. Maybe I just saw the shallow part but if they are confined in too small a space they could become aggresive to one another.

::hey all

::i am new here. i have two res. one is a female, and i think is about 1 or 1 1/2 years old and a 2 years old male.

::the female is alot bigger than the male - and alot more "outgoing" and agreesive

::the smaller one used to eat alot - but now seems to stop - and it also got really fat... any ideas on what is should do?
