Ok.. I'm starting to think the intelligence of fish is WAY under rated. We have one big fat sucker fish, no idea what he is, but he's spoiled rotten like the rest of the crew. Diva's taken a special interest in him and gets in crap all the time for scaring him. As soon as he sees her nose up to the glass, he freaks and goes into his scull. None of the dogs had noticed him before Diva started obsessing about him and now Scarling is obsessed with him. Funny thing is, the fish is not scared of Scarling, she'll be staring at him with her dorky curious look and he doesn't move. Diva appears WHAM he's gone! Scarling's even started nosing Diva out of the way. I don't think she likes Diva buggin' her friend. Then the other day, Deeohgee was staring at him {she had never noticed him before either} and I'm not sure, but I think she might have growled at him. She does a weird ''rumble'' that sounds like a growl, but is just her talkin' to you, as she's all happy when she does it, so it could have been that, but her back was to me so I called her and she turned around all guilty looking. I'll be keeping a close eye on her. I don't want to start crate and aquarium rotations but I don't want her going through the tank, either! Gaud... why are my animals all such FREAKS!?

Here's the fatty...

You better get a behaviourist there immediately!

[thargeagsaf]

No doubt!

[Aeaefee]

Zoe, you better alpha roll that fish! Exercise, discipline then fishy affection - get ahold of your pack!

[thargeagsaf]

Gaud... I'm loosing my grip on my pack all over a fish! Well, in my defence, he is pretty slippery!

[Ivanaishere]

Sounds like my crew. When my BIL was living with us, his dog always tried stare down the fish. He would see the fish and then he would start staring at them and his chest would puff out. This is at the time when we had the two fish tanks plus six betas all around the house. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen.

[thargeagsaf]

OMG. At least I know my dogs aren't the only wierdos!

[Aeaefee]

Uhm...shock collar - hellooooo

Who is Diva?????

[skupaemauto]

Have your fishy read NILIF and see if that helps?

[bitymnmictada]

Umm....where is that fish's leash? Gosh everyone knows that is the only way to control out of control fish.

[thargeagsaf]

Who is Diva?????

Diva is the hellion of the house!

[Aeaefee]

OH! How could I forget


I got to meet Ellena's cat the other day...it was an interesting experience!

[thargeagsaf]

They are such trippy cats. I wonder if Cleo is as bratty as Diva! OMG. She is SO bad!

[Flieteewell]

I bet Diva's gone fishing before, so that fish knows she's serious! Not all cats hate water, and I bet she doesn't at all, seeing as how she's been bathed regularly from birth.

My little meow princess brat killed & ate 2 koi I had outside a few years ago. well, she only ate 1 and 1/2 - there was a tail end left over.

[DeedPatmeda]

Zoe, you always make me laugh!

[FotoCihasWewb]

I have to stick my nose in here.
Do you feed her (looks like a girly from the fat figure!) other than the algae/left overs around the tank? A lot of pet shops will tell you thy only need what is left over, but they benefit from regular feedings... I feel horrible for all the poor pleco's who should be getting meals that are left to starve for algae.


Too funny... You'd be surprised what personalities fish have... My koi girl is such a little diva, she will only let me touch her if there is some mango in it for her, but Caddy my Fancy goldfish is al for bak rubs all the time. Porky, my shubunkin with no hind end due to a cichlid attack, is a nut. He is a ball of fire. And they recognize people. My old angels knew who I was, they got downright ditzy when I walked in the room, didn't react to family.

Ah, in case you weren't aware, that's a CAE, Chinese Algae eater. Got any algae wafers? mine loved them.. Homemade veggie jello snacks were a big hit too.

[OnlineViagraCheapestFREE]

Yeah thats a Chinese algae eater, sometimes called "Golden Algae Eaters" Ive seen in a few petstores. I think there is another "off" name for them too? But thats what ya got.

They tend to be skittish, but also can be aggressive in fish tanks and pick on other fish.

I just have a single lonely cichlid that everyone thinks is a gold fish! LOL but I did have a tank full of cichlids but this guy was a big bully and does best alone so I just gave away the other fish. This one is my first cichlid child so, and he is FULL of personality.

Its almost as if he knows your talking about him cause he'll show off. If one of the dogs is up at the tank he will tease them. He follows people around the room in his tank...just really neat.

[poispanna]

what kinda set up u got zoe?

[FotoCihasWewb]

Oh boy, fish buzz is coming back. I had seven full tanks once and over sixty bettas, when I bred them. Something wiped out all of my bettas one day, I'm guessing someone intentionally dumped floor cleaner in their tanks. Really a shame, I had some gorgeous platinum halfmoons, double tailed yellows, dragon coloration bettas, and a batch of fry from my favorite pair, most of whom had cambodian coloring. Boy I cried all day. There wasn't a damn thing for me to do, I had to sit back and try to keep them half way comfortable in clean, shallow water. Not to mention the loss of cash, many were imports.

I then moved onto breeding Cherry, Bamboo, ghost, yellow and snowball shrimp. My city for same freaking reason added Ammonia to the water, I didn't know and did a water change on my tanks, everyone died. I left indoor fishkeeping. I have two pet tanks, one is a crappy pet store betta, the other some guppies and apple snails with African Clawed frogs.
