screw the dye. It's just a reminder of what he's been through. He looks great, and I would be proud to own a fish that's gone through that much and still looks so good. Props to you :thumbsup:

Nice GG. I have to agree with everyone. Not a big fan of the dye job, but glad to see a rescue. I'm actually surprised that the dye kept it's color. I hear they eventually fade away. Did it recently get a dye job or is that from when it was young?

From what we understand he was like that when he was under 2". Sad life. This is the tattoo kind and I heard that lasts forever.:irked:

Thanks! Much appreciated! I think he is going to work out really well. He has a great personality.
 
that would be one heckuva pattern if it were natural.

There no way that tatoo was done at under 2". The pattern is too perfect and there's too much dye in the spots. At 2" as he grew, the dots would stretch not only farther apart from each other and become somewhat misaligned but the dots themselves would stetch. That tatoo job was administered as an adult.

Thats what I thought too but he told me he got it at about 4" and was told by the previous owner that it was small when he got it and it was already tatted. Weird.
