Spotty

Spotty is spotty no more. I noticed this morning that his last two burned scales are back to their proper orange color.

I also noticed that I have acquired an astonishing pile of fishy accouterments. Everything from medicine to tank clarifier to stress coat to 101 different types of food. All for two silly goldfish and their pet pleco.

And speaking of Mr. Pleco, he’s a total riot. Whenever I give him an algae tablet, the other fish try to take it away. He’s no dummy, though. He lays down on top of it while he nomnomnomnomnoms, so that they can’t get to it. And watching him clean the algae from above the water line is hilarious, too. He suckers himself to the side of the tank, then shimmies up until his head is just above the water, then he scrubs furiously until he has to go back under.
