    Default I caught him!

    I finally caught Leggy with his throat out! Normally he'll start chirping and I'll run to the tank with the camera, by then he's already done or he's too far hidden. He still has a very young tree frog call, but I got him!

    So cute! I do the same thing. Go running into my office to see who is croaking and I love it when I can catch them with their throats out!

    Great picture! I'm glad you finally caught him in the act. I wish I could get a picture of my Tiger Leg calling but every time I make a move for my phone, he shuts right up. :/

    It is funny!! He's such a baby yet he's out there like he's the big man.

    One of my daughters wanted to name him Leggy Log, the other wanted to name him orangey (because of the flash of color on their hind legs) So he is now, Leggy-Log-Orangey. His name makes sense, a fish named Leggy though??? LOL

    Haha i love the names kids come up with i know someone who had rabbits called Cow-Horn and Car Seat! All our Fish were named after Lord of The Rings characters, but anything over 6 letters got shortened, hence Legolas became Leggy and it stuck, even i forget how it came about some times.
