[manu1peja2bird3]

How big does a dwarf caiman get

[MarcelFirebird]

beautiful set up dude !

keep on posting those nice vid.

[sidewaysonhighways]

I use to want caimans, and I think I still might gets some when I move out. I love their creepy cat eyes. i just hope I am in a state where they are legal, when I move out. I have a lot of cool animals on my wishlist.

[butabuta8281]

how much did you get that for and is it illegal where you live to have those what state do u live in

[reptileangel]

Beautiful set up. I have a P. Trig. who's about three feet long. They're beautiful animals! I'm looking to get a P. Palp within the next couple of years.

[BigScary529]

Best part...picking TOOL for the music, lol. How many gallons is the tank?

[KraigD320]

Ok, so ive watched most of you tank setups, which are all zoo quality :) , maybe better. So to get to the point, I have a young Alligator Snapper, which is in a a 55 gallon at the moment ( baby ). You have sweet what seems to be drowned tree roots and drift wood and I was wondering if you could give me some pointers, cause a goal of mine is to have a tank setup that looks and resembles that of his wild habitat, which makes it ascetically pleasing to me as well.

[Staceyeb3030]

very inpresive tank

[stuckyyy]

Hi, really cool caiman!!

How much time can i keep one of these in a terrarium with an area of water of 55 inches x 17 inches and an area of ground with the same size..??

It's only curiosity, I dont't want to buy one of these hehe

Bye!

[n2488]

first person on you tube to keep them in more than just a box

[yugiohwwefan]

SWEET

[HerpatologyBoy]

nice set up

[rockninja7777]

wow what will you do when it gets kinda big? or how big does the little guy get anyways?

[soiledlocket]

if its a caiman only 3 feet

[reptileangel]

4-5 feet

[BigScary529]

dwarf caiman's only get 3 feet

[reptileangel]

Maybe if you don't feed them. They average 4. Look it up.  Trigs get bigger than Palps, but they still get bigger than three feet.

[ZETASPRODUCTIONS]

can you upload a video on how to make a setup like the one you have?

[TaRazz13]

awesome video man, crazy setup to...5 stars

[youngdezzzy69]

were can i get one i cant find them anywhere

[heydude6676]

Damn, that is badass. You take that guy out ever?

[powerman2442]

Nice tank... better music. :P

[sprocketbomb]

Amazing! I think that I like this little guy more than your cichla! Too bad you can't keep the 2 together...

That tank setup is simply awesome! I am insanely jealous.

[kentobizmol]

The water looks really crisp! what's the filtration?

[DIESELMACK]

125GAL SUMP SYSTEM AND A FX5

[kentobizmol]

nice... but lol it actually works in that little of water?? it's not even 1/3 full.lol

and for the pictures at the end, what kinda camera did you use?

[DIESELMACK]

I have a center overflow that is under the large log and the return comes in the right as a waterfall...the tank is drilled just above water level on one side for the fx5 so it doesnt pull water the complete height of the tank..all works smoothly. camera is a cannon powershot a460

[kentobizmol]

i see, thanks!

it would have been really cool if you could have done like a co-habit setup with both the caiman and the peacocks together...

In Japan there's a public aquarium with pirarucus, arowanas, catfish in the water and squirrel monkeys above. and another tank with amazon fish with toucans and iguanas above the water

[nof4tchicks]

Nice tank, how big is it? And how big is your caiman?

Btw: It looks more like a paleosuchus trigonotus than a paleosuchus palebrosus.

[DIESELMACK]

tank is 7ftl x 4ftw x 3ft high..palp is 28" long..100% palpebrosus count rows behind head and palpebrals from above dorsal view for verification. this is not a baby.

[woodyinthemiddle]

The rows on the back are also straight in a line on palpebrosus. On trigonatus the backside rows are staggered irregularly and more pronounced. The eyes on palpebrosus are a reddish/brown hue and trigonatus a greenish color. Look at the pic at the end of DIESELMACK's video here. Very red. These are sometimes called the Red Caiman,even the hide has a slight reddish tint.

[Lambo6fo]

Nice set up. For the people who don't know, this species of Caiman can get up to 5 feet long and will need a much larger enclosure.

[imabadspeler]

I love that settup!

[ddyerfamily]

very nice !

[chefrific]

SICK!!!!!!!! Nice vid!!!

[untouchablejus]

tank*

[untouchablejus]

Very nice caiman there Mack. Great setup aswell. 1 of best tabks setups ive seen.

[arranthesnakekeeper]

how big do they get and what size of tank do you need for its life

[Dpistol1]

fuckin sick

[ieberhart]

awesome, i had an oppurtunity to have an alligator, but the upkeep was too much for me to handle. would definatly be fun to keep though. how many ppl can say, hey you should come over, check out my pet gator.

[PaC9307]

Thats insane!!! Great video!

[vtie]

Definitely BAD ASS!

I must have missed why you decided to get rid of your PBass... Can you fill me in?

[DIESELMACK]

Needed a change of pace ;) keeping the big cichla was a full time job for years for how many I had...although fun and great, it got a little bothersome with an already full schedule and full upkepp ect.. So I decided to get back to what I originally used to do and that was breeding snakes and other herps..I still have approx 9 orinocensis from my breeding pair that I have kept that are "special" ;)

[vtie]

Awesome. I love the caiman and the snakes too but just had to ask since you were the reigning KING OF CICHLA! haha

Keep these pimp vids coming bro! Nice work!

[sabotaj]

I like him better in the 450 more then the Cichla's Scott..He is bad as SHIT!!
