Love my old blue gularis. I am glad that I had such a long time to be with him. He passed away right before I moved into my new apartment from old age. I'm so so happy that he was able to pull through his scary dropsy episode a year ago (something that I never thought I would be able to cure. Full-on bloat and pineconing - and yet he lived! Medicated the heck out of him with kanamycin, metronidazole, salt, and heat. Lesson learned - never overfeed a begging blue gularis with blackworms ever again).
He was rather silly and jumped a lot when I was close. One time he actually jumped vertically in the air about 2 feet during a water change and smacked me in the face! First and last time I've ever screamed doing my fish hobby!
Goodbye dear friend. I hope that one day I can keep another. This is an amazing species and everyone should keep one at least once! I just wish that they lived longer :(
