As I mentioned, my 10-15 year old Tilapia Big Guy passed away today. I inherited Big Guy from Carl Ebeling back in 1997 who has just gotten him from Soha Hassoun, one of his students who recently graduated. Carl was nervous about keeping Big Guy, as back in the day Big Guy was rather aggressive and would go after hands in the tank. and considering his mouth was bigger than a quarter in diameter, this was a bit intimidating.
Anyway, after nearly ten years with MK and I, Big Guy finally went to fishy heaven. Here are some pictures from 2002, showing him in his prime:
