I just noticed yesterday that my Ornate was missing. Don't know how long he's been gone, but I looked all around the tank. I checked the top of the tank and yup...there was a piece of the back top where the hoses come out was knocked out of place. No body, so I can only assume that it jumped and some vermin carried him off
I guess it's good that I didn't find him because I don't want to take a sad pic of a dried up corpse to show. Instead, here's a pic of him (also my avatar) in all his glory. 13" and only 4-5 year with me. It's kind of a bummer...I've always wanted to be that MFKer that has had the same fish for at least 10 years. The closest I have come is my Vampire Pleco of 9 years.
