Sounds like how I lost Godzilla and some other big bichirs awhile back. Any plans on upgrading tank/filtration or changing up the look/substrate of your tank in the new year? Fish keeping hasn't been the same for me. The interest isn't there atm!
New CB congicus and the big guy came out to pose

@Burbotman,
I could not tell very well from the pics but do they have the same finlet count? The one you said looked more cb seemed like it had less... or just a funny angle that hid the full count?

DMD, just the angle of the picture. Will be interesting to see how they compare as they grow.
I have changed the look of the tank somewhat over the past couple of years . Substrate has went from light to dark to now a blend of PFS and blasting sand. Plants, I gave up on the swords and went with anubias and crypts. My interest did take a kick after the death of the big cong, but having the tank full of my other guys forced me to push through
I find as my kids are getting older there is more time for my hobbies so hard to say what the future will bring.
Everything is cyclical, your interest will return and we will applaud the return

How true. When my son moved out there was more time to pursue a hobby. And after being away for over 20+ years,
I decided to get back into fish. It was a pretty quick progression that started with a 65 gallon tank and soon progressed to a 120g then the 210g to finally the 300g. So it will be interesting to see if a bigger tank or multiple big tanks are in your future. It is an addictive hobby!
I know ill have multiple big tanks in the future

Once my kids are out and all grown up ill have time for more hobby. My son right now is asking me for his own tank for xmas, and im planning to buy him a 20g or 40g. So basiclly that my little tank until he ask me to upgrade his tank to a bigger one. I told my wife to that when we buy a house next year that ill buy my second big tank 240g and ill have the garage to myself, and she is fine with it.
