The look on his face makes it so much better, lol.
My ex and I used to have a piranha for a fish. He refused to name him (apparently it isn't manly to name your fish) and I didn't really care for the fish because I was opposed to his desire to eat other fishies so I named him "Sprinkles". It was the least intimidating name I could thing of...
Sprinkles the Piranha is AWESOME!!!!! That's great
Robert doesn't really name them because fish can be so fragile and naming something typically means an attachment. LOL I just name everything LOL
Our firemouths were Bully (very aggressive) 6", Nobody (did nothing) 5" and Baby 4.5"(stayed small and hid)
Our Blue Acaras are Tres (three lines) 6" and Dot (one spot) 5"
Our bristlenose pleco was Ashleigh. ~6+"
in the end...Nobody and Bully had 40 babies in our tank. Nobody started getting called Mama and Bully started beating her up.
We put her in the other side of the divider to protect her from him. The divider was there to protect the babies. Bully protected his babies up until we sold him to a fish store a few weeks ago along with 10 babies. He was purchased by a man with a 150gal tank and some other 14" fish in it that were MUCH larger than 6" Bully. Also more aggressive. Apparently, little Bully is the boss of the tank.
Baby got renamed to Killer when she killed off both Nobody (Mama), Ashleigh, and nearly killed Dot.
Killer was sold to the fish store on Monday. We picked up Severus (~2.5", our Gold Severum, and two baby bristlenose plecos that we can't tell apart yet. So we call them both Ashleigh (2") and Ashley (2").
We still have another 30-40 babies to be sold back to the pet store as they reach 2"
