JessicaandMarshall 2 Posted December 17, 2003 A ham, it means funny! Sort of the same as "clown". The dictionary version is a "bad actor" LOL, but I take the bad actor to mean funny.... I guess it is a weird saying. I am Canadian, but I know that Americans use that term "ham" as well Jessica 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest melanippe Posted December 18, 2003 I'm about ready to put 2 small ones in every tank......since my small tank started leaking & I've had to move one small loach and one small oranda......the loaches now together have had so much fun together. I know it's virtually impossible to breed them although someone must manage how! But they curl around each other and really seem to match each others swimming abilities better then with a goldfish. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JessicaandMarshall 2 Posted December 18, 2003 Melanippe I have heard that they know virtually nothing about how they breed, but then I wondered where mine came from LOL! Right now he is swimming around doing barrel roles. I am in Love! I really hope he makes it, I've never become this attached to a fish in such a short time. It's too bad that he lost his friend. If he survives, I will try to get him another loach buddy Thank you so much Melanippe for inspiring me to get a loach. He is fabulous! Next time you have your camera out, try to get a picture of your loaches together. It's too bad that your tank sprung a leak, but at least the loaches are having fun heehee.
