A look at a few more fish that were caught in my 15,000 and moved to my 52,000. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UHIAG1JRyw&feature
The fish moved:
11 year old 33" Pterodoras granulosus (Armando, Bacu, blind cat) bought at Big Al's Aquarium Services on Dundas St in Mississauga Ontario in 1999 at 7" for $26.95.
