Very pretty!

How many fish can live together in that giant tank? You might need more fish.

I've heard the one inch per gallon rule thrown about on the internet. I'd say I agree with that. But I usually take into account the maximum size of each fish. I'm thinking I can fit a few more guppies in this tank. We'll see how it goes. Wanda's pretty aggressive with the other fish. I'll have to keep my eye on her.

I've heard angelfish can be mean. My brother used to get those for the fish in his tank, but he only had one that lived for very long. It was kindof fat and had short fins. It was probably eating the other angelfish in the night.

I think Wanda's days may be numbered. She totally rammed a guppy earlier this week. Now its spine is all curved and she's swimming oddly.
What a bully that Wanda is... Hmmmm...

Oh, I hope I didn't give Wanda any ideas.

One of my mamma guppies just gave birth to 12 fry.
I just separated her from her kids so she wouldn't eat them.
:)

12? "Listen, sister, I'm running out of room here..."
:D

Wanda disappeared.

Seriously. I don't have the foggiest idea what happened. I searched all the hiding places and even dug up some of the gravel. Wanda is MIA.

It's sort of a blessing in disguise, but it's very strange.

We noticed she was gone on Friday and thought maybe she'd turn up later in the day. Nope. Gone.

I have a couple of theories.

1. She died for some reason and the guppies and catfish consumed her.
2. She jumped out of the tank and a furry four-legged Frodo ate her.
3. Ralphie murdered her. But I checked the freezer, no frozen fish. So that's out.
4. Kevin Kline came over to my house an ate her.
5. I flushed her in my sleep.

Very, very strange.

Wanda, RIP wherever you are

Oh, poor Wanda.

Are your other fish fatter than they were before?

Cadaverous Pallor 08-02-2006 08:50 PM

Don't be sad for Wanda, she's a part of the cycle of life. Seeing as how she was mean to the others, be glad. Getting a fish out of a tank can be a very messy business indeed.
