so i was cleaning my pbass tank yesterday,i thought to help remove some left over debree i would hookup a hang on tank filter and leave the grate off the end.i could kick myself.some lessons are hard to learn.his tank mate a 10in. tire track ell swam up the filter tube and before i could stop him he reached the filter propeller.im not sure if he will live or not.his nose has been damaged pretty bad but his mouth seems to be ok.but i know he uses his nose to find his food.this was a hard lesson in keeping monster fish.
keep us updated on him
