So long Big Yellow

Big Yellow is gone. He was so old, and mean. And I'll miss him.

Big Yellow

Big Yellow has been looking a bit bloated recently. Retaining water? Is that even a thing with fish?!

Homicidal Maniac

Big yellow has sent the larger of the 2 blue cichlids to that big pond in the sky. What a wanker!

Here's the 2nd to last man standing, strangely not so blue anymore.

New Fishies.

Friends, or lunch? Hopefully friends.

Bad News?

I just found out that Oscarina, the cichlid who lives with my Ma and Jamie since we moved may be sick. I'm sad to hear this, I'd hoped they both could continue carrying on for another 5 years as they seemed so stable. Each tank in each city seemingly running on its own. We'll see, hoping for the best.

Ciclid Envy

My Mom's fish is bigger then my fish..... :(

New Digs!

The tank is all set up finally and populated with two of the cichlids. I've left one at Mom's to recover, they were all looking stressed and the one was very picked on, so I took only the two healthiest with me to the new house and the big tank and left the other. Hopefully he'll make a full recovery. He looked much better the lat weekend I checked on him.(it?)




I also purchased a new filter, as I chucked the old one during the move. Totally new brand and filter types, media etc... I can hardly hear it at all and it seems to be working very well.
