Hi Guys,
I knew that it was going to happen, my beloved black angelfish had passed away this morning when I got up.
He has been ill for about a month, mostly lying on his side, barely eating coming to the end. It was really horrible and I couldn't bring my self to kill him, so he just went when it was his time, and I just hope that he didn't suffer too much. 
Anyway the reason for my post in this section is that I thought I would put a few pics up of his life, unfortunately the pictures are not very good, being black it was difficult to get the camera to focus. But here goes. It also shows how quickly angelfish grow.
These first two pics were before I had a digital camera, and were taken with a video camera, hence the quality
(You can just about see him down the bottom right hand corner)
As you can see he was quite tiny when I got him, this was nearly 3 years ago, his body wasn't much bigger than a 50pence piece.
These two pics were taken 12 months ago, and unfortunately, I couldn't find any others that showed him more recently, because he had grown quite a bit more in that year, so I've included a pic of his buddy, 'The White Angel' who is now looking a little lonely, but I'm sure will get over it.
So there you have it, the 3 years of black angel. He will be missed.
Thanks for looking.

I did actually find a more recent picture of him but it was when he was ill and lying on his side. It was quite sad. I buried him in the garden and felt a lot better after that, I just hope that none of the cats dig him up for a nice meal.
