Chief Brody has grown a lot in the past 11 months

What a difference 11 months make! These images show the amazing growth of Chief Brody over the past 11 months.

In the photo at above left, he was just a baby Oscar exploring his new home on his first day there, on March 13, 2006. Above right, he is the undoubted sovereign of his domain.

The white tank decoration in the background gives some scale to the two images taken nearly a year apart. When he arrived in the 29-gallon tank, he was two inches long. Today, he is 6.5 inches long and growing more every day.
