No guys, I didn't cave and get a new one, but with all the talk and everyone getting all the pretty new o's of late I went diggin' though my computer looking at pics of my guy. He needs no formal intro to MFT, as he was around way back in the day (I think...) but it's been many a moon since his fishy presence graced these screens.
Ahhh, classic newb mistake. (Lets see, an inch per gallon, two 10 inch fish full grown, and hey! Pleco's don't add to the bio-load! Great for a 20 gallon tall tank!!!)
This was Eddie and Norm. Seemed like good names for the pair. Got them when I lived in TN. Sold Norm back to the LFS before moving back to Ky though.
Big E definitely had some funky patterns going on. One of the most colorful and most interesting patterns I've seen in most Oscars.
He (she?) was right at 12" when we gave him to the LFS here. We were afraid that some moron would buy him and put him in a 20 gallon tank. It was nice to know that he went to a guy who had just lost his oscar of 10+ years and was going to have a nice comfy 150 gallon all to his self.
