Regular Member Ree Posted April 22, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Guess what.... I GOT NEEW FEEEEEEEEEEEESH! Just today!!!!!!!! I was going in to the pet shop today to buy two fantails, and when I got there the fish in the fantail tank didn't look too crash hot, lots of bottom sitting and floating issues. So I started looking around and fell in love with these two little babies. They are only small. I think they are about 6-7cm. How does one measure a fish? Nose to tail tip? or Nose to base of tail? Please excuse my photo taking skills. They just would not stay still for two seconds together and my lighting was not great. This is pOdge.... pOdge is checking out my finger to see if there is food attached. He has such a big mouth for such a little fish! and this is & Co. (he hasn't got a name yet, still trying to think of one that suits him). I think he might have a dose of ick though. Is &Co. a black telescope or a black moor, or are they the same?

Regular Member Ree Posted April 22, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2015 Very nice Ree.......I bet you're VERY excited. There's just one ever so slight problem ....... I think Podge has swallowed a golf ball Thankyou Jim... I am absolutely SOOOOOOOOOO excited! I just want to keep looking at them. I think you are right. Do you think I should have asked if he came from near a golf course???? His little belly wiggles like jelly when he wobbles around the tank. Its a scream! Can you tell if he is a boy or a girl from the photos? I have had a guess, but I would love it if someone could tell me if I am right or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member motherredcap Posted April 22, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2015 The fish sexers will have to weigh in I vote that the black fish is a male. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Ree Posted April 22, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Ive just named the black one... &Co is now Louie... here is why... (my photo is out of focus sorry... but the filter is in perfect focus... what I was aiming for.... right!) Does anyone know of the add campaign we have in Australia for Mortein fly spray... featuring a fly named Louie? The campaign has lasted for years. He was even on tv adds when I was little! We used to have to sing the 'Louie the fly' song in choir when I was in year 1 of school. LOL Doesn't he remind you of a little fly in this photo?

Regular Member Blitz Posted April 22, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2015 What cuties! I'm really loving your fishy combo because I just happen to have a little pearlscale and moor myself right now, although I think your pearlie is rounder than mine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
