Happy puff. The lite patches on Yoda's back look like 6 pack abs kinda funny.

Very cute vid!

A bit of constructive criticism--stop killing her with kindness. She's being overfed & she's too fat. You're gonna shorten her life span like this.

I do not have to keep a specific species to notice a growing waistline. ;) I've been in this hobby >40 years.
Overfeeding a fish causes fatty liver & a shorter lifespan. I feed my adult fahaka 2x/week.

Im not sure if your correct or not but feeding a MBU twice a week doesn't seem right to me. And further more you live in Chicago if you would like to come visit her we also live in Chicago on the northwest side just send a PM. And you can share your opinions........Josie

Yea I think PP mentioned seeing you at a chilid swap. Larger fish can definetly go long spans between feeding. It took alot of effort for me to cut back feedings. There just too cute when they beg.

Do you have any empty tanks you could board my fish in? Do you ship?
