Funny Thing Happened The Other Day...

[comocrayfish5]

so i was feeding the many different kinds of fry in my fry tank and after they have spread out looking for food, i saw a molly near the side of the tank. i looked at his markings (dalmatian molly) and what did i see?? along with other blotches of black i saw the word "No" the 'o' was not a black circle, but a black circle with a white dot in the middle to make it an 'o'!! if i can get a good pic i will post it but it is very hard...

"I have a no-fish",
"You mean you're trying to do an Italian accent and you have no fish?"

haha yes that would be funny. then there might be 'maybes' and other words. i start my own line of "sentence" mollies and i will force people to pay lots of money for them
he is not the first fish with cool markings. i had a goldfish that had an "i <3" with the heart being a usual upright heart. some of the molly fry used to have hearts but more spots appeared so it is just blotches now. AND i also have an old molly form the store and i was looking at it from a distance one day and just the way the many blotches were i could make out an "RIP" in its side!

i have a pic but my camera died so it has o charge for like 4 hrs then i will upload and post them!

The fish is like:
What? Take a picture of me? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

EDIT: it also seems to say:
No Fry.

 

[comocrayfish5]

what do you mean by 'no fry'?? there is about 65 more fry with him

 

[Man of fish]

Lol it kooks a bit more like "HO" then "NO" but I get the jist! lol hahaha a no fish.

 

[comocrayfish5]

in person it looks more like an 'n', sill figuring out how to take good pics with the new camera plus the fry have a habit of following fingers and cameras so it is hard to get a pic of just one fish

His way of telling you "Dude! There's too many fry here! Make some room!"

 

[comocrayfish5]

hmm yeah there are a lot but a lot are dying off so the others will grow.

That's the saddest part for me with fry...
I only saved 5 lazy fry who landed and sat on the sand. I used a net to fish them out.
1 of them had a bent tail, I gave him 1 day to get it straightened, but he just kept spinning in circles on the floor of the box so I had to give him up to the adults
Then 2 fry died, one within the 1st week and the 2nd near the 2 week mark. Both showing signs of bloating, the albino seemed to have had his belly popped too... there was a red line on it.

Now I'm left with 2 fry. They're 3 weeks old so far. What annoys me is that one of them started to look pretty much like his dad, losing a lot of the red coloring he started off with. -.-
And the other looks like his mom but with black eyes. Lol.
