RT Black Shark

Hannibal is an excellent name. Interesting colour pattern. Same on both
sides?

Yeah...It's like I said before...a bittersweet turn of fate. The lady that
brought him over thought it was a 'goldfish'. Well, yeah..it's a goldfish,
alright!! I like the oscars, they just weren't in the formula I laid out
for this tank's design. Truth be known..I'm seriously bummed about having
to sweat the issues of who stays and who goes. I'm too old for this. My
neighbor came over when I called him about the adoption..he fell to the
floor with envy. It truely is a stout speciman...and his colours are like a
rembrandt impression. My neighbor can't take him off my hands..he runs a 55
gal com tank chunk full of fish...countless live-bearers..a pair of breeding
silver
angels...mollies..guppies...swords..bettas...shark s..cories..tetras...all in
one tank...I call it the viagra commune tank. He is totally reckless with
its maintenance...He just wants to look at fish..not interested in the
husbandry end of fish-keeping. But..he did manage to have a pair of angels
spawn in there...go figure? What are the odds that this lone oscar will get
along with the other tankmates?...too broad a question. I call this the
grand accident experiment.
Take care......-ED


Still playing with 2 newsreaders, eh? ;~)

I think if you research the Red Oscar, this is what you might have, so the
sides might darken to a deeper orange. An Oscar is quite a bit more
commitment than you were probably planning, seeing as how they are so long
lived and personable. Sometimes my tank stocking strategies go according to
fate too. You can only plan so much ;~).

You got that right!...Strange Fate..Stranger Fortune. The Outlook
(express) has features that I like, and better features that are
absent. I like its janitorial ease of use. I'm trying to gain ground
with Thunderbird since my spam is on the rise now. And Opera's really
nice, save the fact that I haven't found the lower limit of headers I
want downloaded from the server.

I've been looking at the Red's data here and there...but Net, this thing
has the color of old gold on a canvas...dingy isn't the word...just
...hell...I'll get a camera one of these days. It's 10:21 CST here,
still have all the inmates :-\ ...
I won't mind him...I'm just forced into a position of getting him a
proper home built...money's the issue in my domain. I could always go
pick up a small tank for the danios...sure would be easier on the
wallet..I've got around $500.00 in this tank as it stands now...I'm back
on bologna and crackers..but boy, DO I HAVE A TANK...way. way easy on
the eye. I've thought about putting a skirt on it and taking out to dinner.
