More Baby Fishies!

I got up and fed the fish and a huge handful of babies came up from the gravel. So, I may have more than the original Seven that I counted. They are so cute and active. They eat great, and are even pooping good. (Something you need to watch for so the little ones and even the bigs ones don't bind up. You don't want your fishies to have tummy aches)

I Love their little personalities. They're intelligent and will dart away when an adult comes close.

I have one adult male, he's yellow/red, and he likes to vacuum around the bottom. When I catch him doing that, I tap the glass and wag my finger at him. He gives me this 'look' and then wanders away.

The second momma fish is still in the breeding net. She's not eating all that good, but she's still alert and active. I can tell she's never really been a 'pet', she's too skittish and fearful. So, I talk to her when I lift the lid, and tell her that she's a good girl and how pretty she is. Of course your fish can hear you in the tank. Especially when they're right at the top. And when I stick my fingers in, the others will nibble my finger tips. It tickles. They're pretty docile and very sweet. I love my fishies! Thank God I got such sweet little guys!
