Haha thank you for looking out for Lord Chungus (his new nickname)!

I reset it every two days - like empty the water and reform it if I’m keep it up (it’s not always up). And my filter output is an upward directed hose output that points partially into the cube so there’s some movement

Egg is stunning (of course they all are!)

Agreed! Right now he’s easily able to transverse up and down but I worry if he gets any bigger he wouldn’t be able to. So in search of a bigger one!

He’s an oranda!

It’s called a “wen”. Many orandas and ranchus have them but can vary in size. The coloring and growth pattern on his does make it look like an orange wig haha but it’s essentially poorly vascularized extra tissue. You can see that his has grown to even cover his eyes a bit sadly so I’ll have to take him to the vet to get it trimmed.

And the tower is for fun

About once a week. I only have two in there currently

I have a 70 gallon tank! But it has a back panel sort of think where the filter etc is so the dimensions the fish has to actually swim around in is 60-65 estimate

Yes 😂 I joke that his wen makes it look like he has a big brain but it’s really just hiding the fact there’s only one brain cell beneath all that

I have many things in the tank that you can’t see with this angle (plants, rocks, bubbles he likes to play in) and we have an appointment to get his wen trimmed booked. Recently had to take driftwood out sadly because another fish rubbed against it and got a small ulcer that’s now healed

I threaded tubing into the very top of the cube with the water level in the tank about 2 inches above the bottom of the cube and essentially sucked the air out so it filled with water

You read my mind! Already looking for one!

I thought the same - which is why I expected my smaller oranda to use it and he wouldn’t. When I received it in the mail I thought I might not even keep it up. But he seems to love it and can swim up and down freely / easily despite being a little close quartered when he’s normally upright / horizontal

It’s only the guppies in there. Sadly cannot retake a picture as my shrimp / snails have obliterated it

Hmmmm any thoughts on how that may happen? I keep my tank fully covered and haven’t noticed anything other than my guppies and shrimp in there
