Fishies!

Ok... they're not exactly furry but I guess scaly pictures are allowed here too, right?

Anyone else have any fishy friends?

I love fishies. But they're so hard to take pictures of. Here are my current fishies:

There's Wiggles: (Wiggy for short)


And Kibbles (Kibby for short)


Wiggles got his name from the cute wiggling-style of swimming he has and Kibbles I figured was probably what the cats would like to name the fish.
(plus it rhymes with Wiggles)

Here's the two of them together:


By the way if anyone can spare some tips on how to take pictures of fish that'd be great. I want to avoid using a flash but since they more so much the pictures are almost always blurry.

Now let's see some other fishy friends...

Oh, and here's Wiggles and Kibbles' home:



It approximately 30 gallons and they have a powerful filter and a air pump and bubble wall. They seem pretty happy there. The tank is big for two little goldfish, but they'll grow into it

Hey beautiful fishies! I like the names. Kibbles.
Thanks for the pics. I don't have any, but I would love to see everybody else's fishies too!!

o O o O o O o O

Here are some more fishies I've had a few years ago. They died about two years ago. I got them from a breeder. Weren't they pretty?

I never gave them names.

Whoa, they were pretty!!!.....So it seems like you are the only fishy owner? Maybe it's because this is a cat site and everybody is afraid their cats would just eat fish...

I would! Harley spends hours watching them (we have 3 goldfish as well) and he is just mezmorized by them! Keeps him out of my Christmas tree!!

I bet Leo and Gracie would love watching them! I usually get the cute little goldfish at WalMart for like .28 cents! They are cheap entertainment for the kitties and I love them!

Baby Harley is a doll!! What a pretty boy!!!!!! Is he a bengal??

Well thank you very much!

Nope, Harley is not a bengal! He's a Tabby, he's just got lots of stripes and spots!

Yeah, I had a really elaborate fish tank at home that my brother inherited when I moved out...it'd be nice to have a couple of fish again. I don't really have anywhere to put as big of an aquairium as I used to have, but there's a nice little open space on my desk for a small one...sadly, no Wal-Mart in Chicago...I'll have to go to PetSmart and get gouged on a 50 cent goldfish instead!

Wonderful pictures of the fish everyone!
I wish I could take pictures that turned out that well of my little finned pets.


this is my gourami
Gumbo



I have several other fish also, but he is the only one who will hold still for a photo.

youre not the only fish owner!

I have this tank:
Unfortunately one of these fishies died, the fat one.



here is teufel guarding the tank


And here is my supposedly algea eater


I have a bigger tank now 64 litres, and 9 white tetras with the one lonely fish I am going to get neons when my tank is set up.
I will take pictures of it then and show you

I'll see if I can dig out a few pictures of my Bettas

Awesome fishies!

OH no amy! that is so sad!
Do you think that maybe your fishies are actually the sick ones??? not the water??
