aquarium wars continue

Toronto, 2011.06.30

I had a scare, recently, with the condition of the Pleco in our fish tank.

It turns out that adding some spirulina wafers was the solution. I've been doing that for about two weeks now, and the fish has bounced right back.

Now if only I could get the Angle and the Clown Loach to stop their constant feuding. And the wee loaches are all looking very pinched, I've got to make sure that they're getting some food as well. This is an unusually tricky aquarium to feed. I wonder if the coarse gravel is playing a part - could the food be escaping the fish?

Three good things that happened today:
1. Fantastic weather. Truly ideal.
2. Managed to solve a major process issue at work with a small technical implementation.
3. Kenny is overjoyed at the thought of visiting with grandma tomorrow morning (he's even learned the concept of tomorrow!)

I think a more appropriate first exercise for a burgeoning programmer in training would be:

system.out.println ("Goodbye World");

Could be just not enough food is getting down there. Clown loaches are champion diggers and should be able to get at anything that is in there. The old one used to tunnel underneath the drift wood. Rich

Wow. I may just be drastically underfeeding them. I dunno, the old loach is being a real bully again - it's like we took out two of the babies and the thing turned on the angel (which, of course, is no angel itself). The latter's left pectoral fin is now in ruins. I haven't seen anything like this level of infighting before.
