    White Devil: Oh, he wasn't very big, he was about 3 inches long :) But I just don't think it would be a fitting end for him to get flushed in the toilet :'D (I wouldn't ever flush a fish in the toilet anymore by the way.)

    MasterBlue: Thanks :'3

    You guys just reminded me of a show I saw on TV once about pets! It was liek... people stuffing their beloved dad dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs... And a GOLDFISH. Someone had a goldfish stuffed. It looked like it was a fantail about 6 inches long or something, and it started looking really plastic...y.

    Btw, I called the pet shop today, and they said that the Orandas have a 3 day warranty, so if they die before that, I can get a new one :) I'm thinking about having another golden one...

    I only keep heads,pelts and meat. Ive yet to stuff a fish, 100 bucks per 1" around here is kinda hard to swallow. I do my own pelts and head mounts so its cheaper there.

    I use antlers in my aquariums from time to time depending what fish are in there and what mood I am in. I am trying to convince my dad to let me sink a european mount 12x12 elk head in his 210 but he says discus and elk are not native to eachother I say, who cares.

    @dawn
    Sorry to hear that =( Hope you feel better!

    There was a guy who owned a small shop near my house. He did mounts, I helped him from time to time. It was alot of fun, but he didn't get enough buisness and had to move. =(
