puff has passed on

Post by matt willis »

just to let everybody know it is with a heavy heart that my beloved puff died tonight after a freak accident with my filter emptying my tank and him getting trapped upside down , we think he was one of the biggest mbu in the country at 27"
ive enjoyed my time with puff after we saved him from a miserable life and enjoyed my time on here,
thank you

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.
