My first Oscar was a black tiger Oscar. He was way beefier than the guy I have now, but I had him in a 75g and didn't know that the pH was swinging every week. By the time I figured it out, he had developed chronic HITH and I couldn't resolve it. I'll miss that guy. I gave him back to the LFS.
Not my pic, but he looked a lot like this guy, but a little less dark:

fficial%26tbs%3Disch:1Probly my black phantom tetra. I had him as my first fish and i had him for 3 years. One weekend i was gone he died when i came back to see him 
my 3 14 yr old ID sharks. basically have grown together with them and i was quiet emotional letting go of them to go to a better home.
Probly my first fish ever, he was a common pleco and my mom got him for me when i was like 5 he was like 6 years when he died ): His name was Wormy, he died when the power went out one winter and he froze to death.... but my mom's ****ing albino frog lived..... i hated that thing it terrified me
lol that f****ed how the frog survived but the pleco didn'tRedBellyRhen;4011366; said:
. Sorry the hear about your pleco man.
my favorite of all fish no matter how many new ones in the future ..will always be my two pacus.... they were the ultimate entertainment...in cuteness.... and fun.... and also the most exciting to show off to people... they were turkey platter huge... so they were quite the show offs... i am glad i had 8 years with them before i lost them due to short in wire under their tank...
I raised a volitans lionfish to what seemed like basketball size when I was 12 or 13. He died when I moved him to a bigger tank. I was crushed for weeks about that one. I have a lot of theories about what might have happened to him but I have finally just decided it was youth and inexperience taking on a saltwater tank too soon . He was beautiful.
RIP Turkey !
