ive got a pair-just moved them to a new tank recently-and pushed up the heat since im told 82 is good, im ranging 80-82. as most people who keep caecilians know-they are hard to photograph, its not in their nature to sit still, and sometimes the only time you see them is feeding time. so i decided that while the set up was new and clear (not a scratched tank too) i'd get some photos. here is what you typically see-represented by the typically bad photo....
here are some ok shots, first two are of my female for a brief time while she was 'sitting' still
few people appreciate these animals as they look nondescript and they wonder what attracts some to them. here is the answer for me, these are some photos of them eating-showing the mouths the best i could. i am amazed at how an animal that looks like a worm could open its mouth and look more like a shark. although they dont have as many teeth as shark-the bite and size of teeth are quite impressive. also impressive is the way they can get the food item down so fast!
