Anybody keep fish?  Here is a picture of one of mine.  He is an African Cichlid from Lake Malawi.

Watch this. (http://media.putfile.com/lunch-at-EMKs)
That catfish is a freak.  I've had nightmares with fish like that in it.  Just to forwarn you, those goldfish in the video are not tank-buddies, they are feeders.

Oh, so u mean that the Goldfish are the Catfishes food? That was kinda funny when the black fish did that flip type thing! And when all that gravel flew and stuff!
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 28, 2006, 07:09:31 PM
LOL Yeah!  I jumped the first time I saw that.  Did you see the size of that thing's mouth? :o

Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 29, 2006, 06:59:08 AM
Not the catfish.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: TP Zelda on March 29, 2006, 01:04:02 PM
So the goldfish are urs? Are the goldfish the catfishes food or something?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 29, 2006, 01:44:59 PM
No, the goldfish were not mine.  Yes, they were the catfish's food.  

Did you notice how stupid the other goldfish looked.  It was like "Oh my gosh.  Something's wrong.  Maybe I should get out of here."

I got bored so I video-taped my fish.  That stinking catfish has got nothing on these guys.  Watch my little devils in action! (http://media.putfile.com/mbuna10)

Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 30, 2006, 08:39:45 PM
All I said was the catfish and goldfish aren't mine.  How did you like that brief fight between the blue fish and the pale fish?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: TP Zelda on March 30, 2006, 10:18:14 PM
I havn't seen it yet. i'll look at it know!
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: TP Zelda on March 30, 2006, 10:23:16 PM
What were the blue fish doing?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 31, 2006, 10:00:07 AM
Which part?  
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: medli on March 31, 2006, 10:19:01 AM
um,if you don't mind askin but isn't flash photograghy bad for animal's eyes? ???
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 31, 2006, 10:50:00 AM
I don't imagine.  It wouldn't be any different to them than it is with us people.  The worse that would happen is they'd see spots.

I like to photograph my cats with a flash because it makes their eyes glow all cool.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: TP Zelda on March 31, 2006, 12:09:10 PM
can u post a couple of ur cats? oh pretty please?! :D
the part that im talking about is when the 2 blue fish are behind the tower like thingy, and it looked like they kept raming into each other.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on March 31, 2006, 12:15:40 PM
They were fighting.  They lock their jaws together and it looks like their kissing but they are really having sort of a tug of war.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: TP Zelda on March 31, 2006, 12:16:56 PM

Post by: Darth Wyndisis on April 12, 2006, 06:56:25 PM
I set up a new tank and I am getting a couple of these gems.  They are called Blue Rams.  They die easily, but I think I am up to the challenge of keeping them.

Post by: TP Zelda on April 12, 2006, 07:05:54 PM
how come they die easily? what do u have to do to kill em?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on April 12, 2006, 07:09:05 PM
The water needs to have a certain chemistry for them to do well.  They are easily shocked by immediate changes in the chemistry of the water.  Have you ever heard of pH?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: TP Zelda on April 12, 2006, 07:10:44 PM
of course iv heard of PH. Phantom Hourglass?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on April 12, 2006, 07:14:22 PM
Lol, no, not that PH, pH (notice the "p" is lowercase) is the measurement of water's acidity.  These rams like acidic water.

You should get a lionfish. Those are some pretty bad mothers.

Lol. how about..... pigmy goby? its like the worlds smallest fish.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: daemonsage420 on April 13, 2006, 12:04:38 PM
How big are they? Or should I say how small?
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on April 13, 2006, 12:05:28 PM
I don't feel like getting a saltwater tank though.

This (http://abc.net.au/science/news/stories/s1555027.htm) is the worlds smallest fish. ;)

Edit:  Pygmy Gobies are 2.1 cm max.  They are also the shortest lived vertebrate.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: daemonsage420 on April 13, 2006, 12:07:07 PM
That is the smallest fish.

Stick your tongue back in your mouth. It's bad manners.


Just kidding.

How, um, interesting.
Title: Re:Fish

That's why I was gone, I was asleep.  :P Next time, play real movies, not fish!
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Hi no Seijin on May 20, 2006, 05:32:48 PM
But I like fish.

Disney made such a big deal about finding Nemo when I already found him.  He tasted good. ;D

By the way, nemo is Latin for no one.
Title: Re:Fish
Post by: Mysterious F. on May 20, 2006, 05:35:36 PM
That explains something. Also, what I meant was because we have real movies like Scary Movie 4, so we don't need to know about what fish do as pets.
