so as promised here's some of the pics of gums. just to clarify i wasn't throwing trash at him the can is a size comparison tool.

before i got him when he was a baby something tore off the top half of his tail.

now you can see why i called him Gums. during hand feeding it felt like a toothless old man gumming at my hand...lol

smells like pop tarts and hotdogs

What a very cool fish!  I was really surprised to see all the intricate patterning on his head and body-- very, very cool.

I'm truly sorry you lost him.

today has been a very sad day in fishkeeping for me today. after about a week of Gums (the fish in my avatar) fighting a fungal infection he finally gave in. he ended up being a 22"(little shorter than i thought), 10lb, baby of an oxydorus niger. he was definitely one of the greatest fish i've owned too bad he only lived to be around 3yrs old. will post pics later.

Buk,

I have not been on in awhile until the other day & saw you lost your big Cat, I am sorry for your loss & hope you find another guy just as cool as Gums was.

John
