Hurrah!

Maria did have babies! I was just remarking this morning as I was feeding the fish that she looked about half the size she did a week ago (when I was still not sure if she was pregnant). And lo! As some of the food dropped to the bottom of the tank, a wee bite-sized fishy darted out from under a plant to grab it. I looked closer, and there were many, many babies! I am going to count them and move them to their breeder tank (away from Captain Von Trapp and Maria, who were totally hunting them for food). I also need to get the filter working again. Eep! More later. Promise.

  2. I just told Katie that this was an unplanned pregnancy, and I'm pretty sure she called your fish a slut.
