Fish and Glass
Today my biggest fish died.
the Cichlasoma dovii weighed 1.25kg and was just over 350mm long.
She was around 4 years old.
She had very sharp teeth and also ate several hundred dollars of fish that the aquarium dude assured me could keep away from her. - I guess he was wrong!
Here are some pictures to remember her by - the kids called her Miranda Dovii.
!
She now resides under an avocado tree.
I shall replace her soon with some new baby fish - yet to be chosen.
This evening the kids broke a window by crashing into it - they are lucky they didn't get cut. Thank goodness for strong curtains.
