Listing Description
He’s a year old. Pretty sure he’s male. Before he developed longer claws and a tummy curve, I wasn’t so sure. My coworker found him in his office. He must have crawled all the way across some train tracks and through the warehouse. So he’s an explorer.
He’s very active, loves to swim. It’s fun to watch how fast he snaps at his food. Sometimes I feed him with chopsticks. He likes to “hunt” the food in the chopsticks.
He doesn’t really like to be picked up. I only do it when I wash his tank. I run two filters so I can keep it cleaner for longer.
Included are all the necessary supplies and a 30.25" x 12.5" x 12.75" tank with two filters, a water heater, a heat lamp, and a basking platform. Also included: enough food to last months, water treatment supplies, two bags of river rocks, and some fake water plants. If you bought it all new, it would cost over $400. I want you to have him for free if you’ll take care of him.
Let me know if you have questions.
