Features

So I lost Spike last night... didn't even have a chance to get rid of that ich and show you guys some pictures first... and I'm not really sure what caused it. Only had a couple spots from ich in the morning, was dead when I came home late at night. It looked like columnaris, but I've never seen it move that fast before.

Anyways... in an attempt to be more cheery, I'm posting features a day early.

The first image is by Daniella Vereeken and was actually one of the ones I was considering using in the layout when I redid it, but it didn't match. Just something about the way he's looking right at you always gets me. And his colours are really neat.



The second one is by Zara and it's just really cool. I don't really have much more to say about it.

And the last one, which is by Spyzter, is neat too. Check out the rest of his photos - the bowl makes them look really neat.

And that's it... I've gotta go clean my tanks.

Spike has ich

So I was going to post pics of Spike this morning, but apparently he has ich (why do all my new fish always get ich?) so I've added salt to his tank (1/2teaspoon per gallon) and I'm keeping it dark and hopefully he'll get over it in the next few days.

Amusing diagram of useful knowlege

Just thought someone else might be as amused by that as I was. It's the best diagram I've found... because it's not boring, and it's useful information, too.

I also got a new fish yesterday. Spike... he's blue and red and just cool-looking in general because he's a crowntail. I'll post pics later.
