Only if i can show you my cucumber!

Uncle Salty 05 · 04/24/2009, 01:25 PM

Nice cucumber!
I have thought about getting one but have heard stories of bad things happening when they die.
How long have you had yours?

johnike · 04/24/2009, 01:45 PM

I've had him for over three years now. Model citizen and champion sand cleaner of the world. Yeah, I've heard the stories of getting cought in pumps and such, but he never leaves the sandbed. He's over 18" long when fully extended. I just thought it was a cool shot wrapped around the zoo's. John

Here's another shot.

Uncle Salty 05 · 04/24/2009, 02:04 PM

Oh, it definitely is a nice shot.
The stretch shot is more impressive as far as showing off his size though.
I might have to reconsider picking one up.
