Showing of my Fishies








Just a quick post tonight. I need to make some hair flowers :)
These are my fishies! We were cleaning the huge tank..blah.. I hate cleaning the tank, haha. I don't clean it, my husband does! But I give him words of motivation to keep him going! That's enough, right?
Sooo, that big ole fish is Grouch, (which he's so not).. We had another Oscar named Oscar (Oscar and the Grouch), but Oscar was the true Grouch and she was abusive to our sweet sweet Grouch so we through her bum to the curve! Okay, we donated her to Petco, she was about 8 inches at the time and sold for around $50.00.
Grouch is about 10" now, though you can't tell in the photos. Those are his buddies, (African Cichlids) Speed Racer (The blue one), Little Orange, and Bumble Bee.
Speed Racer was actually a yellow fish with a black 'speed stripe' down her side when we got her. Strangely, she turned blue.. But she is one hormonal fish! Mean to core! She's killed some fish and picks on ALL (even big ole Grouch) mercilessly.. It's sad. We'll probably have to get rid of her some day :(
That crazy photo- that's a BIG splash made by Grouch. He soaked EVERYTHING in my sewing room. It was horrible. But we learned that when we are taking him in and out of the water, do it fast! (So he has less time to splash about)
Why am I showing you my fish? Who knows :)
Do you have fish???
