75 going on 180

So sorry to hear that. Some fish are harder to lose than others - sounds like this guy had quite the personality. I remember smiling at his efforts to woo Udon.

Like clm said - he had quite the fish life with you! Lucky little dude.

Ok update time.
Took a video of the scootandfruity but it was weirdly distorted and almost cepia colored not sure why but I'll try a new one soon. I did get a few pics though.
got a couple pieces of frog bit and mini water lettuce and they absolutely went nuts. So must like the cheap light ive got on it. I know the light will grow serious algae.

Well ive got bad news. The first fish that started me back to fish keeping has passed. I think he had cancer there was a lump that showed up and he really hadn't grown much since then. I liked to think of him as the little sen that could. He ate last night just like normal and acted normal just like normal. I didnt euthanize him because he always acted good. I thought that if I saw him in distress I'd take him to my friend who is a vet and put him down. But no real deciding factor that showed he was any worse. I came home from work and he was dead. Its as simple as that.

Hope you weren't suffering little buddy. I'll miss you chasing Udon around trying to win her over.

Sorry for your loss. You have given the little fella an awesome life. He was happy for sure!

Its been pretty good with the barbs and corys I put in with it. Its a Schoutedeni puffer also called a Spotted Congo puffer. It is a risk putting anything with puffers. Its getting a 75 once I get the 90g angel tank on line and the new sump. The cories will go in with the angels. The barbs I'm not sure about... I think maybe back to the lfs kinda boring. I thought they looked nice and were quick enough to get away from the puffer if it went after them. The puffer had chased them a couple times at first when they were zipping in and taking its food but after it realized there was plenty it stopped doing that. The barbs are pigs and just kinda mhhh.
