are you keeping him when he gets older? We have two freshies about a year old now.. the plans to build the pen are there but we have quite a big block of land to house them.

they are so cool to watch although ours had a taste for tadpoles when they were younger and I had to fight to keep my frogs

atm just cheap goldfish , they go into a holding tank[ i use rainwater from one of my 6000lt tanks for both the gold fish holding tank and the crocs tank] for a coupe of weeks - to get rid of any chemicals . then i put 3 fish in the crocs tank at a time .

Cool pics , can you hold freshys on a rec license in qld or do you need a demonstrators permit ?

 

[JAS101]

bit of an update :
Snapz the croc is settling into his new tank , and the bhp is settling into his new enclosure under the tank [ saves wasting the room with junk]
the fake bushes makes a nice cave for snapz , they are on a painted board above the water level . even my old license plate off the rotary came in handy as a heat sheild .

He is gorgeous, I know a lot would apply that to birds or fluffy animals but I truly find reptiles gorgeous You're so lucky to have him and I am really happy for you
