Re: POTM August 2013 - Winner Announced!
Sweet. That pic is from like two years ago. Heres a few other shots from the same time.
He was in a 46g back then and now (since Jan/2012) he lives in a 55g now with 5 BBGs. I need to order more BBGs as his original 9 have died except for 1 and their 4 offspring. I love BBGs but their short 2.5-3 year life span sorta stinks. This F8 is the most laid back, docile fella. When I got him back in 2010 he was full grown so who knows how old he actually is.

There are many knowledgeable fish keepers on this forum willing to help and give great advice...The advice is free; What you choose to do with it gives it value.
