I'm beginning to think each of our bimacs has its own personality.
Ollie loved a new barnacle I added to the tank - he was right on it, sticking his arms in it and holding it. He liked it so much he took it back to his den. He had done the same with a small cork.
Ollie didn't think much of the bioball, however. I let the bioball float on the surface of the water, and he observed it with big eyes for about 15 minutes before going up the tank wall and reaching out one arm. As soon as he felt it and knew it was plastic (or at least, not edible!) he lost all interest.
Anyway, here's a recent Ollie pic.
