I enjoyed reading about all your babies!!!
I had a 50 gallon tank that I bought in 1990 an filled with cheap neon tetras and a 2 dollar kissing fish and a few others that honestly I cant remember right now..within two weeks even with due diligence on their care and upkeep all but the kissing fish was dead.
We honestly expected the angel it to die too....so we never named him (I dont KNOW he was male, he just always "seemed" male to me). When he died 8 years later, we still called him Fish. At the time of his death he was 5 inches long, 4 inches tall and about 1/2 inch thick.
He was truly amazing...I never imagined a fish could have attitude but Fish did. When he'd get mad at me he would turn his tail to me and kind of peer over his fishy shoulder every once and awhile hehehe. He was an attention whore in the 1st degree, he knew how to get my attention...he would psych me out by laying flat on the bottom of the tank until I would come over to see him. When he was happy he would dance in the tank and wiggle like no fish ever wiggled before. He survived 3 moves and I was convinced he'd out live my cats lol, it was truly a sad day when we lost him....so sad I sold my tank and havent had another fish since.
I know he wasnt "exotic" like some of y'alls but 9 years later he is still thought about just about every day.
