Best I could Do


Fish Tank
Originally uploaded by mattdantodd.

OK – this was the best I could do. The fish really didn’t want their pictures taken, and the camera isn’t as high-tech as it should be for the picture I had hoped for.

The orange fish is a Sunburst Platy. On the lower-right-hand corner, those little brownish-greyish specks are the baby Dalmatian Mollies. As of this evening we had at least 16 babies still alive.

The adult Dalmatian Mollies didn’t want their pictures taken at all. They’re getting a little more aggressive towards the babies. I saw one adult take out a baby pretty quickly this afternoon. The adult Dalmaitian also tried to pick a fight with the algae eater. The algae eater decided to chase him instead!

Oh, the joys of an aquarium!
