    what i especially like about the video are the underwater tongue flickers, you can see them repeatedly, and how clean the water is and how well you can see it.

    but when i see a video like this, i have to mention one thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bt9zSfinwFA you need to turn the phone by 90 degrees.
    Yeah, I should have done that in the first place, but it was too late by then. Maybe I will make a bigger production video next time

    Very interesting video! Cool pics, too.

    I have some BPs who are very calm and almost calculated in the water, they seem to really like it. And then some who want nothing to do with it and will thrash/zip around until I take them out. I don't put them in water very often - only when they've soiled themselves or after they have laid eggs.

    Re: Swimming python

    That may have been one of the most interesting personal videos shared on here. He just goes for a little dive, ducks around a bit, then just comes back out on his own. Too funny.

    Re: Swimming python

    That was pretty cool! Now I may have to see if Monty likes our aquarium. I was only worried about the fish being eaten. Do snakes even eat fish? I would think that the fish and everything else in the aquarium would register at just about the same temperature, so maybe they wouldn't "see" the fish as a prey object? Or maybe I just think too much. Lol

    I think you're probably right...I doubt they would even recognize it as something they could eat...

    Some snakes do. Go to Google Images and search "snake eating fish." Across the globe their are snakes that eat much more than rodents.
