One 1,000G Indoor Monsterfish Pond Coming Up! (Ghetto Style)

This was how I chose to "temporarily" cover the pond, with a tarp. There is an open space created by the PVC pump where the aro jumped out of.


Jumped out in the middle of the night...


A shade under 29"


Even in death they look majestic and regal


He's about 2.5 years old I believe


This guy was the grouchier of the pair


Pic with TJ, my Boston


Final resting place: RIP


Parting shot, my boston pronates to get my attention and cheer me up

You have a good point there, but I have good reason to believe that the guy jumped out when it was pitch dark. At night, there is no source of light and the household help wake up at the crack of dawn. When he was found (early in the morning), he was all dried up.
