  • age and size fine. Not thrilled about the hook. Would have thought something about their poisonousness making them hazardous to livestock when consumed in feed was more interesting.
  • How's ALT1? Betta? :) -- Rcej (Robert)talk 02:20, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
  • New reviewer needed for ALT1, and also to check everything beyond age and size. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:41, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
  • ALT1 under 200 characters, interesting, and verified from online sources. Article text appear suitably paraphrased from online sources I looked at. Sasata (talk) 16:12, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
