New Picture of Augustus & Searching Made Easier!

I finally got a good picture of Augustus! (thanks to my dear sister:) I had to put him in the separator to get him to hold still for the camera. Even this picture doesn't do justice to his beautiful tail! He is also slightly more purple/pink. Enjoy!

If you haven't noticed, this blog has also gained a new search bar. Now you can search the blog and internet quickly and easily! My latest project has been to go back through all my posts (Oh, the memories....) and add labels to them, which will make it 10x easier to search this blog. Search results should appear at the top of the page. I organized it so it will bring up any article that I mentioned your search word(s). I encourage you all to use it. (It's really fun, actually...)

Pachus gone missing? & What to do with dear old Aphrodite


I recently noticed that Pachus one has not been accompanied by his dear friend, Pachus 2. I looked everywhere, filter and all and he is nowhere to be seen. I'm hoping I'll find him when I clean my tank again. Hopefully alive instead of dead. Eiosepa's fins started to improve, but within the last few days have they gotten even worse than at first! I just don't know what to do!! I suppose I could put a fish muzzle on her, so she can't bite those tempting long fins. But I can't sell Aphrodite! I can't. I like her, and there would be a hole in the tank without her! Well, Caligula has gotten huge! I might even have to sell him eventually too!!! Or (which is the solution that I like better) I could buy a bigger tank. In my dreams. Advice is welcome. I hope to keep you posted!!!

Update!



My fish tank has been its usual happy self. Recently I put Posiden into one of those separators, not because he was being bad, but because he's being nipped at. I noticed his fins looked a little torn a couple months ago, but just recently they have gotten worse. I put him in there so he could heal, and so I could find the culprit who's nipping at him. I suspect Aphrodite, I read that her species likes to nip at fish with long tails. Would it be bad if I put her in the separator like.... forever? I'd make it homey, but a couple pebbles and plants in there. Maybe it would be too much stress. Oh well, for now I'm keeping Posiden in the separator so he can heal. Other than that, not much news. Zeus is starting to eat the algae wafers... and he's enjoying them! He looks rather cute when he does, but whenever I try to take a picture of it or take a video, he swims away or hides. If somehow I ever do get a picture, I'll be sure to post it! Here's a picture of Posiden in the separator, if you were wondering what the separator looks like. Sorry about the lack of posts recently, I'm trying! I also noticed the ads that have been popping up on the blog, I don't know how to get them off, so I'll work on that. Bye for now!
