The Aquarium

Sunday hasn't ended. I won't break my new years' resolution yet.

Two of my fish have disappeared. One of the tetras and one of the mollies. My aquarium-expert friend informs me that the fish can be a bit cannibalistic at times. Maybe I shouldn't have bothered naming them.

I count my fish every day. Now I'll also be looking for tiny skeletons.

The fuzz on my plants is algae. Nothing to worry about.

The plants are growing just fine.

She's not sure how I can get the food down to the corridorasses and algae eaters before the tetras, guppys and mollies eat it. More shrimp pellets, probably.

The tetras look a bit fat, but they're still growing. Nothing to worry about yet.

The fat guppy is actually pregnant. I might get more guppys soon.

Happy Birthday to Me!

(And my older sister.)

According to the clock on my computer, it's still ten five minutes until my birthday is over, so I'm making a birthday post.

I didn't get any actual presents, by I got money to pay for that aquarium I'm buying from a friend of mine. Once it's set, I know someone who wants to buy me a fish, so yay!

(This won't be the first time I get a fish for a present, but this one will hopefully be alive, not dead and dried and smelly.)

Since it's orchestra week-end, my day was filled with music. Since we're doing an opera project with singers from the Grieg Academy (the University's Academy for Music), someone got the sopranos to sing me the birthday song. That was a bit embarrassing, and very cool.

Tomorrow is the concert, and after that, some friends and I are going out to dinner.

There's no sense in this post, so I'm over-tagging it and ending it. Nighty-night.
