Mr. kissyface fish (otherwise known as an algea eater) started eating the scales of the last remaining goldfish – and today Mr. Calico Goldfish was dead.
I’m getting rid of the ugly one and just keeping one fancy goldfish…

On Saturday we woke up dark and early before the sun in order to catch our Uber to LAX before 7am. We were flying southwest and had checked in the day before right at the buzzer, the instant we were allowed to, but still ended up in C group. When we finally lined up we […]
Our train arrived in Paris after sunset and we tried to use the “easy” subway system we experienced in London and Brussels but were quickly stymied by a glitchy machine that wouldn’t keep English selected past the initial screen. Kind of a problem for figuring out what to buy. Belgium even had a guy walking […]
We reached Brussels before sunset, perfect for checking out the Bourse Christmas Market. We’d picked the right lodging in some ways and the worst in others. The hotel was right next to the market and the hub of the city, but it was also somehow very loud at night with clanging and banging and strange […]
I had a goldfish in a bowl for two and a half years before he finally kicked the bucket last Spring. I’ve tried to get another goldfish like him but they’ve all died within a week or so of being bought. I even splurged on a fancy beta but he also kicked the bucket within the first week.

Algae eaters are only good if you have a variety of larger, slightly more aggressive fish that will push him away when he gets too close. I used to have African cichlids and the algae eater did just fine with those. Algae eaters are best with large tanks.
I used to have chichlids too. With goldfish. In the same tank.
I was stupid.
LMAO. ohhhh you just made my day. too funny.
