He was the one that somewhat introduced us to each other... You were looking for info about giant gouramis and I was haunting that thread drooling about a fish I wanted... man, that was such a long time ago... and now he is gone... I can't believe this... It's like I've lost a member of my family.

I suppose it comes full circle, you were here and I was here and we met, and by complete coincidence, you came back just before the he died. I'm glad you did, I've missed out little discussions, you always bring a smile to my face when ever I see you post because you were not only there at the beginning but you still are.
I'm a sentimental old fool at times and I did shed a tear when I looked at your updated sig. I've been a stroppy moody person all for the past two days at work and if I told anyone why everyone would think I was insane.
Having a tank with a large fish sat in it, watching tv with you and interacting with you for three years is somewhat different to losing a neon tetra. non MFkers would not understand.
Thanks for coming back and here is that shot you wanted, I know the tank looks tacky but hat is the way he likes it, we arrange it in such away so that when we redo it we move everything around so that he moves it back, we do a 50% water change every 2 weeks on that tank and move everything as far away from where it was to the opposite to keep him busy, he even moves the gravel into mounds to where he likes them :
I may come and go but the friendship remains, brother. When I read the news I went to sit in front of my tank and look at Eva and it came to my mind how a big part of my life she has been for the past years... and how much I want her to remain so for many many years to come.
The Oscar tank is beautiful! And, he so reminds me of my first fish - Tempo, a Tiger O. That must have been the most affectionate fish I've had. A dog really... I miss him lots...

Same with George, used to walk into the room and say hello to him on the way in, can't get used to saying hello to grace(because 9 times out of 10 I can't find her, she's that small)
Always room for an Oscar brother
My mother just sent me this picture of Dave last time he stayed there last year, she found it when clearing out the camera: View attachment 518209
