getting some fish, plus rest of week.

do you know it was half term! so lots of things didn’t happen. However, I really can’t think of what actually might have happened! I think DH and the girls chilled a lot of the week. SB did a lot of music theory prac as her grade 3 exam coming up. Some socialising, Monday with friend G who used to be in guides, and a sleepover arranged for a fortnights time :) SB v happy about that. Tues went to DH’s parents. Weds was wodensmeet, thurs I think had shopping and dentist in it, and dunno re friday – prob getting house tidy as parents coming :)

Anyway, for me the exciting thing was getting some fish :) [and for the girls ] we have bought 2 mollies, BB called hers ankie [short for anchor apparently??] and SB called hers shimmer. Both supposed to be small mollies, but SB’s does look v different. Hers is a girl, and on close inspection BB’s a boy. hoping not to breed to readily i must say.

OOh, tues eve we all did some marbling, as BB had been v keen to use the special paints. Unfortunately, as i found out, she hadn’t realised this was a technique of painting, rather than an alchemistic way of turning paper to stone :( She was somewaht disappointed, but the results were great.

  1. I did struggle with mollies. Tetras were easier for me to keep.

  2. we’re going to try another molly, and then bb set on guppies. we def will get tetras, but the current wisdom is to add them last when the tank is v used to fish. i def want platys! so 2 of each molly, guppy, platy and 4 tetra is current plan.

  3. does the white one look like a molly to you??

  4. Silver Lyretail Molly?

  5. ah! that’s the one :)
