Lungfish pic

Here's my biggest lungfish. Have resorted to lugging my laptop around the room as the cam is built into it... but here goes... not great photos, but you can get some idea of how massive this guy is. I adopted him last fall from a LFS where he had been dumped. His name is William. (In one of the photos you can see the laptop's reflection. Notice how he is roughly half the width of the laptop. Big boy!

He looks awesome. You must be proud.

He's an awesome boy - and yes, he is actually very active and owner responsive. Thanks for the compliments! He has a bad habit, though, of splashing me while I'm asleep. His tank is near my bed LOL

He's a big boy... He is the one I found at a LFS dumped by another customer, so I have no knowledge about his background, so I don't know if he 's stunted, or if he will reach his 3 foot natural size.. He does seem a bit older if you ask me though. I have had him for about a half year and he has not grown all that much.

Forgot to add that he is just about 26 inches.

Thats awesome bro..........whats he feeding on??

He likes pellets, FD krill, turkey, chicken, beef, and he does like dog food, but the dog food is messy, so it's only a rare treat. I have not seen anything he doesn't like yet LOL
