Dates are a little vague, I'm working from the meta data on the pictures.
In August 08 we purchased 2 oscars named fatty and bumbum to add a bit of spice to our planted tank. Within a month bumbum was dead, fatty decided that he didn't like the company. Over the years the plants were ripped out(he didn't like them) it became our goal to get as many tacky objects in the tanks as possible for him to play with. This kept him happy for many years and despite the tank being slightly on the small side for him he was happy moving everything around and terrorizing guests that went anywhere near him, often by surprise when they were sat near him only to be covered in water minutes later.
Tank maintenance became a pain as the tank needed doing twice a week but we didn't care...
A couple of weeks ago he stopped eating and a growth started to appear bulging from his inside. Despite our best efforts sadly he died yesterday so I thought I'd throw up a little tribute thread to our beloved fatty.
