Our new video for the phone

Our website is almost entirely neglected by the human. She concentrates on the cat because it has furs, we think. But she does care for us every day. She throws our food into the pond: pellets of different sizes, flake food, shelled peas, and brine shrimp. Then, she stares at our bright and beautiful bodies as we swim and play in our new fountain, then dart to the water falling from the dragon fountain. Someone from the aquarium company comes each month to give the pond a more vigorous clean. She changes part of our water by herself in between.

She has made a new video from one of our pictures, which she says is suitable for a phone wallpaper. It appears abstract and fails to capture the full beauty of our shimmering scales.

Rainy Day

The raindrops keep splashing into our pond water. We dart towards each drop, full of excitement. But there are so many raindrops! The sky above is dark.

Our faithful pond dragon tumbles water from his mouth to join the raindrops. We are swimming for joy.

A New Baby Fish Joins Us in the Pond

Newsflash: Today a little fish swam into the pond. We don’t have a picture and it may be difficult to get a picture. The little fish joins our small black fish, born in the pond.

The new fish was also born in the pond, but raised since last December in a small pond.

All the other babies passed to the Shining Waters, so this little one was left alone. The Food Bearer decided little one couldn’t stay alone in the little pond, so the tiny one swung in a net through the air and found a new home with us.

Our Offspring

We haven’t posted for many weeks. The food bearer favours the cat and he has many followers.

But we have exciting news. We have seven offspring the food bearer is raising in a separate nursery. In the summer mating season our beautiful Wave mated with several females, who deposited their eggs on a plant that was only in the pond for a week.

The food bearer, Lynette, keeps some of our plants in water filled buckets in the sunshine because The Pond is shady. She found tiny fish had hatched from their eggs and were swimming around in the bucket. More fish hatched and after a few weeks she moved them to a larger container near The Pond. With hot summer conditions she changed their bucket water often to keep them cool. They are eating brine shrimp and a little bit of flake food.
