I don't know that he will accept it yet but that is the plan I have set for the moment. I left him alone for the most part all yesterday to allow him to adjust. If he doesn't go for it right away he is nice and fat and I can give him a day or 2 of trying the tongs before I make adjustments to the tank and get him some small crickets to hunt. Either way the gravel is probably getting covered with some larger stones so I can raise the land higher so I can make the water a little deeper and going to add a piece of wood in the water to climb on
