Queen's paradise. *some pics of my fish*

[Kalei]

Well Sir Knight and Duke are not here anymore. Last night I took them to the guy that wanted them and had a nice tank. I know its best for them and Queen so that they all have the proper room to grow. But I cried a little in the car. I know... alot of people probably think I have issues if I would cry over a fish. Its just that I get so attached to them and they are my pride and joy. I hope Queen lives forever, cause I'll ball for days if she goes, but she may not for many many years to come.

Anyway, I went to give him the two fishies, and I ended up coming home with one. He had a little black Moore in his tank that was very very small and he wanted to get rid of him cause he just didn't get along with the other big fish, so I happy took the tiny guy or girl. It's so adorably cute, and he makes a very good friend for little guy, since Little Guy is so tiny. I named him/her Black Beauty. I am going to try and get some pics later. Right now he is extremely shy and won't come out from behind a plant. I guess if I saw a large white whale passing by I would hide too lol.

No problem, I remember I bawled when my snail 'ran way' ((it REALLY did go away by its self because we were on vacation)) when I was little. I also bawled about every week when my gold fish kept dying ((I donno why they died though! I was a good care taker for a 7 year old!! My lil brothers kept living and I took care of it too!!))

(((HUGS)))
I know some people would say it's just a fish but I still think about my betta girl Tugboat and wish she was still here.I have a picture of her on my bookcase.

Thanks! and yes they definately will. And Sir Knight and Duke are the males too, so this way Queen won't be having anymore eggs, which means a much cleaner tank and less work for me lol. I am 100% sure Queen is a girl of course, 99% sure SeaKing is a girl, Bob is Bob lol, doesn't matter what gender he is, and I don't know what Little Guy is yet, he is still too young to tell.

Hoe do you tell if a goldfish is a boy or a girl?? I have one and would like to know

Thanks so much Well its hard on goldfish, but males have things called tubercules on their Gill plate(the big scale that covers their gills). They are just tiny specks and are usually white and protruding like tiny spot warts, but very small. Alot of people have a hard time seeing them. Anyways the males have those tubercules and females don't, females have very smooth gill plates.

oooohhhh! ok, thanks I'll check later and see if Marlin is a girl or a boy LOL I named him after Marlin on 'Finding Nemo'
