he looks like he has a sore under his right pectrol fin, fix him up bruce and congrats on getting a true monster:D
 
Brucie.. these are a fun fish and a good story to tell, but eventually they get VERY boring.. My LFS has a big one, and he could of sold it when it first came in because of the 'shock' factor.. but after being greedy and jacking up the price to make it 'store pet' status, everyone realize how it was just a big electric turd and did nothing. Just a thought ;)

I am sure your lungfish is more active, no?
