There was a spawn event in my tank, while trying to contain this event, I have to do water change late into the night. My Tusk spooked and ran into one of my carpet, so I lost him. I got this new Australian Tusk a few months ago. He is not quite as fat as my other one yet but is getting there.
This tusk is really unusual in that he eat Nori also

Well my tank crashed with the Hurricane in 2017. Set it up again and now have this very colorful baby Tusk. Still less than 4 inch but is exceptional in color.
