fantailfan1 26,742 Posted July 23, 2013 Here's the video. I randomly picked the music to cover the background noise . . . Just taken with my iPhone so nothing too extraordinary but at lease you can see Waddles waddle. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flipper 13,057 Posted July 23, 2013 Dawww, Lisa! I love Waddles! I love his segmented orange, white, orange body with speckles...EXCELLENT markings!!! And that tail! Super cute Chu 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel E. 10,021 Posted July 23, 2013 Very Very VERY nice fish you have there Lisa He is beautiful and im sure he will love you as much as you already love him (especially after you feed him) lol 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fantailfan1 26,742 Posted July 23, 2013 Thanks everyone!! I'm really enjoying him already! He's really active. He bottom sat for a while. I think the combo of the high ammonia in the water in his bag and the big pH rise going into my water stressed him out a little. But after the initial hour or so, he's been active and exploring! I *might* have fed him a little. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jenzaar 11,605 Posted July 23, 2013 Oh my gosh that video He's just got something about him that melts your heart, I've been so strung out today but watching that lifted it all up off me! What a sweetie 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebecca Hampshire 2,103 Posted July 23, 2013 Wowzers! I'm head over heels for Waddles already! What an adorable fishy. Lisa and Jared, what an amazing thing to do! I love my fellow kokonuts, you are all such a lovely bunch. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4prettyfish 2,702 Posted July 23, 2013 Waddles is beautiful Lisa. I love his color's and especially his tail. He's a good size also. He's not a tiny little baby but not a real big fish. So you'll still see lots of growth in him. Congrats again on your new beauty. I loved everything about your story of how he came into your home. How awesome of Jared. I just think it's an all around neat-O story. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schoolie 553 Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) I love Waddles! He has great colors and superior...waddle! Well, it's more of a swagger than a waddle, IMO. Congratulations! Edited July 23, 2013 by schoolie 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yafashelli 9,540 Posted July 23, 2013 I would think this was much cuter if Riley didn't eat salmon as her main diet. CindiL, I *might* have a new 75 gallon tank and stand on order. I think this is my favorite picture! I'm so glad he made it home! :) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
