Phatboy said:My female severum I've had since 8th grade, so that's about 4 years. I recently sold her.
I remember that severum. Dont you all feel low when you have to trade , give away or sell your old fish ? That oscar that i had, i gave it back to a LFS for practically nothing. It had that for 3 ++ years. I felt even worse when i came back to the store a week later and finding my O in a cramped 30 G tank.
I sold mine for like $10 lol she was a very nice severum, and I can swear she recoqnizes me because she only begs for food when I'm around (also I taught her to respond when I open up the drawer that's infront of her tank, whenever I open it up she'll coming running to the front begging for food). I sold her to someone local, but I believe he resold her to someone else.... hopefull she's in a good home now.
I have lots of pictures on a CD somewhere, here's one I have on my computer... not bad for a female Petco severum..
I had a silver aro for around 5.5 years...( just gave it away a few weeks back)
now my oldest fish are a zebra pleco (no idea how old, i've had it 4 years), and some discus about 2 years old...oh yeah, i got a japanese firenewt thats at least 6 years old...
