th3f0rg0t3n Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 have just found my 20cm+ male blockhead dead :'( , sad times as he was the king.. and he brought alot of smiles to me and my partner and those who visit and disbelief to people who had no idea that they can grow that large. was a top bloke of a fish, never shy, and died without a mark on him, no damage to fins/body/gills etc, i can only suspect he might have bumped his head fatally... sad times, just thought id share my loss, in his memory.

th3f0rg0t3n Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 measurement was only taken from the tip of my finger to below my wrist to give an indication, didn't think to actually measure him before he was buried, was no small boy.

th3f0rg0t3n Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 appreciate everyones words, will have a small "void" surely now he is gone, and an especially large set of pipes that was his "lair", second ranking male didn't waste a moment and has already moved into the kings pipes. attached is the word, they become like children for those of us that keep animals rather than kids! and it's meant to be easier keeping animals over kids, im sure both sides has its moments... rest in peace my little big mate, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
