View attachment 1443735Genius is 13 years old now. Just moved him/her to my new 1100. He/she is 17 pounds and about 33 inches.

Awesome, reminds me of Grandad from the Shedd aquarium.

My bikers love the lung fish. It’s like he’s part of the pile!

Update on Genius: it’s been a year since he moved into the 1100. He’s gotten bigger! Lately I noticed a deep/low horn sound coming from the tank. Sounds like a distant fog horn or Tuba. Turns out when AUL’s get bigger they make a sound when breathing. It’s about 2 seconds every couple hours. So cool! I’m going to try to get it on video.

Hey buddy!

You sure it's not your Niger Cat? When I moved my big guys into that very same 1100g tank, they made the same sounds you are describing.

Hope I'm still in your will to get genius--just in case = )

Way to keep the dream alive! I really have to post my new stuff here in Saudi...inshAllah!
