Wow - haven't been to this thread in over 8 months!

A little sad - he finally passed away today. He certainly didn't appear to be in pain or anything. Just before he died he made a real effort to come to the top of the tank and grab a couple of granules I had put in at the top for him.

The tumour had probably doubled since Jun 06...I took him into my local pet shop, however the guy said there was probably nothing I could do for him and that it would be best just to let nature take its course.

In my previous post, I got it wrong on how old he was. I bought him at my local pet shop waay back in 96' - he made it to 11 years old! Now thats not bad!

I just had another fish die of old age about 2 months ago - he was ten! A very healthy fish he was as well - however he was 10 yrs old!

Anyway - just wanted to say thanks for your help guys, it was much appreciated at the time. At least I had the satisfaction in knowing I did all I could for him!
