I have put a few horn worms in the cage a couple times. And there's always 1 missing and I figured that it got eaten when I wasn't looking. Today I want playing "fishing" with my sav and all of a sudden I looked to the other end of the tank and a giant moth, came out of nowhere. Ugliest moth ever.. so I guess it must have burrowed and transformed after a month. The sav saw it and went for it, and while was getting attacked it squirted a bunch of liquid at least 1 foot from it's butt and almost got me and my wife, she screamed both times it squirted haha.. it was gross but potato(my sav) enjoyed it. haha

They really are huge when they are moths. Bet your sav loved chasing it down!
