Hello everyone

Its been seven years at least sinve I've even lurked.

I just wanted to give an update on Mr. Green. For those of you that dont know who that is please view my albums.

He is alive and well at the downtown Houston aquarium in their main tank. He is with large groupers and many sharks. He exceeds 9ft and is living a happy life.

Also my bumble bee grouper is over 5ft as well there.

That's a beast Moray.
I will turn my Tess to a local public aquarium probably soon or with in next 2 years.
Make sure you put some planning into this because most places do not accept public donations for many reasons.

I was lucky enough to have a great relationship with the head biologist on staff. Morays are amazing. Tess's are a lot of fun.

Yeah, I knew the manager there for long time, they took my Arapaima, and a Leopard Shark few years ago, I usually don't have to buy ticket to get in there :p I just need to call the manager first and let her know my plan.

Let me dig through my email and see what I have. I should have some updated photos of his current size.

However here is the last day I had the grouper. The eel went to the aquarium quite some time before this.
