06/03/2004 Entry: "A Fishy Update."

And now, for no reason, an update on my fish.

Wolf, the Geophagus, is easily one of the best fish I've ever owned. I'm really surprised that I haven't heard much about 'em prior to purchase -- they're so animated, so busy, and the way their eyes and mouth move paint all sorts of emotions on their face. I've since seen many more Geos sold in the stores around here, but I kinda lucked out on the size of this one -- it was huge when I bought it, but he's even bigger now. You know those frozen cubes of mosquito babies and brine shrimp? Wolf can get 'em down in one gulp. The other fish have to zip towards him and literally rip shreds from his mouth -- something they can't be bothered with unless they really like the food. The brine shrimp cubes provide Wolf with his best trick, though. When he eats those, he'll sit there trying to figure out some way to swallow the comparatively giant cube, mashing it up in his mouth. Ultimately, hundreds of brine shrimp clumps will -- swear to God -- fall through his gills like a Sea Monkey parade, with the other fish following him around to pick up the pieces. It's amazing stuff.

As for the Parrots (the first fishies in the tank for this round, as seen in an earlier blog update...they're doing really well. The two larger ones have paired off to make several unsuccessful egg-hatching attempts. Since they're painted, amongst other factors, I've read that actual fertilization and hatching of said eggs is really rare. Indeed, whenever I see caviar in the tank, it's about three days away from being completely white and moldy. This doesn't keep the Parrots from guarding them like hawks, zipping across the tank to shove everyone else away. The parenting process seems to have made the duo a bit more docile, though -- they formerly kicked the crap out of my other fish for the sheer joy of it, but now they don't bother without good reason. Luckily, since the two monster Parrots have been so busy egging around (and doing that insane kissing courting thing), the smaller and oftentimes beat-up red one has had a chance to heal up and grow quite a bit.

The Giant Plecos continue their reign of terror, virtually oblivious to the fact that there's other fish in the tank. One of them has a habit of sucking while laying sideways or on his back, mouth not affixed to anything in particular. The first few times, I thought we were in for a dead fish. But this has been going on for a while now -- I guess he's just quirky. While I have special food for these beasts, I have to admit that I've never once seen them eat anything. They suck on the glass and rocks, but that's about it. Yesterday we passed up on buying an even bigger Pleco (nearly twice the size) for just ten bucks, my point being that they're incredibly cheap for such large specimens. Not sure if that's a local thing or not, but they're definitely a great selling point for keeping a fairly large tank. Giant Plecos aren't exactly "exciting," but it's sorta cool to have these two big aquatic dinosaurs lurking behind the plants.

The algae eater remains a favorite. Everyone who's visited (and who know their fish) are in awe of how huge the thing is -- typically, these are the tiny little guys people buy to clean their tanks up. Ours is like, 8 or 9 inches, looking like a cross between a fish, a frog, a snake and another animal from some faraway planet. Despite rumors that algae eaters of this size quietly turn from docile to asshole, ours remains quite skittish and hasn't once bothered another tank resident. We totally lucked out on this one -- I've never seen another even approaching this size sold anywhere, and from what I'm reading, he's already well past the average "big" size, which in itself is a rare thing to begin with. Ally Algae is also blessed by being the seemingly healthiest member of the tank. You know how some fish just have that extra extra healthy look about them? This one does. And I'm pretty sure he realizes it.

Finally, our latest find was something described to us as a Dolphin Whale, but web searches for that term only provide a huge gamut of whale watching tour sites and instructions on how to make marine life mobiles out of construction paper. Best as I can tell, it's the opus of the elephant nose family. He's around nine inches or so, and yes, he looks almost exactly like a dolphin...just smaller. Unbelievably cute, and his mannerisms as pretty dolphinish, too. Whenever I go to feed him (a process that involves sticking live worms under rocks, can't tell you how much I love that), ol' Dolphin sucks at my fingers and does all of these strange "feed me" dances. I'm really curious to find out more about the species, so if any of our fish gurus out there have some info, pass it on.

End fish update.

That dolphin dude looks cool.

Chestnuts roasted by Fishery @ 06/03/2004 08:46 PM EST


That's a pretty impressive tank there, Matt. You must regale us with a tour of your place sometime, just so we can see how cool you REALLY are.

Chestnuts roasted by Evin @ 06/03/2004 09:23 PM EST


Giving you a tour of our apartment probably would hurt the cool factor, but maybe I'll photo the office this week.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/03/2004 09:26 PM EST


That's a cool tank Matt. My brother has one of the algae eaters, but it's not really that big. I like the Dolphin Whale, if I ever get a tank set up, I'll have to look for one of those.

Chestnuts roasted by Stacey @ 06/03/2004 10:15 PM EST


I used to have regular goldfish, thinking they were fairly inactive and would just make my room look pretty. They ended up eating each other. And the one that survived ended up incredibly depressed in the tank all by his lonesome. If you want friends, don't eat 'em.

Great fish, Matt. I would love to see some pics of the rest of your apartment, if that tank is any indication.

Chestnuts roasted by Annalalala @ 06/03/2004 11:08 PM EST


I love the Dolphin Whale. First time I've ever came across one of those things. You should record and upload the "feed me" dances.

Wow! I didn't even know plecos and algae eaters could live in a marine tank. Maybe the salt water makes them mutate into giants!! (wishing he had a tank again)

I had a goldfish named fred that I won from a carnival, it lived for like 5 years. Some kind of mutant fish i guess.

aww...the dolphin whale is sooo cute and or awesome. Never seen one of those.

Chestnuts roasted by Emmaaaaa @ 06/04/2004 01:50 AM EST


My understanding is that goldfish have very long lifespans. I seem to remember that my dad's girlfriend's goldfish lived for 19 years, but maybe that was just an old wives tale. Maybe it was nine years. Oh well.

Chestnuts roasted by The Waffle Man @ 06/04/2004 03:33 AM EST


We kept some goldfish in our pool one winter. Even though it froze, the goldfish survived and when springtime came, they were as big size 12 shoes.

Ok, now let us know how the hermit crabs are doing. Thanks to your crab update last year, I know own five of the creepy bastards.

Love the fish, Matt! And ditto what others have said about the apartment tour and the dolphin whale's "feed me" dance. Ah'd sure like tuh see 'em, ah would. smile

And yeah, goldfish can live a long time... we've got one that's been with us for 11 years and counting. I don't understand it, seeing as how his bowl only gets cleaned like four times a year.

And Rayzak -- awesome crabs!

Chestnuts roasted by Wes @ 06/04/2004 08:32 AM EST


Well, you knew I'd pop up with this one!

The Dolphin is a fish in the family Mormyridae (I think I spelled that right). They are pretty friendly and very cool, but tend to come out more at night.

The neat thing about the fish is that they have electric organs in the base of their tail. It isn't lethal hunting voltage like an electric eel, but instead they use it for finding food and shelter in dark or murky water. The dance he's doing probably has to do with using his electric output to zero in on the food (or maybe he just wants to live up to the name dolphin).

A trick that works with elephant noses (so probably dolphins too) is to give them a piece of rigid plastic tubing that is see through--they will hide inside it, and their electric field will tell them they are hidden, but you can still see them--sometimes, fish in that family can be shy during the day, so it's a wy to keep them visible but happy.

Chestnuts roasted by Sean @ 06/04/2004 08:49 AM EST


Wow, I used to think the Plecos and the Algae eaters were the same thing. Eh, you learn something everyday.

Chestnuts roasted by Mr. Mr. Mr. @ 06/04/2004 09:35 AM EST


Whenever I've kept a tank, if it goes south for some reason the algae eaters and the plecos are the last to go. I think they're just hearty fish by nature.

Chestnuts roasted by BaronVonHotPants @ 06/04/2004 09:45 AM EST


Matt -

I think I found a link to your dolphin whale fish here:

http://www.zangfish.com/cgi-bin/fishpage.cgi?29

The actual name is (according to this site) a Dolphin mormyrid. I've never had one myself but he's tres cool!

All these fish postings make me wanna get fish again. I got a betta mostly for the reason of that article you wrte a while back. Lazy pets - who wouldn't love that. I've thought about the hermit crabs, but they don't have them around here. A friend of mine has a bunch of stuff though, so I'll just watch his fish - it's pretty much the same thing.

Chestnuts roasted by James F.W. @ 06/04/2004 11:52 AM EST


Now this is the kind of thing I was thinking of when I made the paper doll suggestion. It would be part of the X-E convention schedule of events. "Matt Invites You to Swim With the Fishes."

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 06/04/2004 12:00 PM EST


I want to see the Joes take on the Plecos and Cobras riding the Dolphin Whale bareback.

BTW, that's an awesome photo of the parrot fish. The orange fish looks so pretty w/ the bright green leaf of the plant. Wolfie's blue eye looks pretty cool, too.
How long did it take for your salt water tank to be ready for fish? We have a fresh water tank, but the chilis are dropping like flies (I blame the media), and I was thinking about switching over to salt water. I know it's a huge monetary amount to set up initially. Is it worth it in a small 10 gallon tank?

We already have Bob, the garter snake my five year old daughter caught in our backyard. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2004-3/661495/SnakeGirls.jpg Here's a pic of him chowing an earthworm, along w/ a pic of my daughters holding him. He shed his skin last weekend - that was pretty cool. He's actually pretty friendly and hasn't bitten anyone yet. I tink he likes us, Maw.

Chestnuts roasted by trajeal @ 06/04/2004 12:25 PM EST


Shit, dunno if I said otherwise, but the tank is completely freshwater.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/04/2004 12:37 PM EST


Garter snakes are awesome. They can both A) creep my mom about, and B) can be fed with the contents of a cheaply-bought can o' bait.

Your fish are pretty cool, Matt, and that dolphin guy is neat. But I prefer really colorful fish myself. Sorry 'bout your parrots having such bad luck. I once had a tank that had a few guppies and a few snails. It got to be around 50 or so guppies and several dozen snails.

The dolphin whale looks awesome, but what I really want is an chinchilla. Those things look awesome. Say Matt, didn't you mention somewhere that your chinchilla died? If so, was it just too old or was it some sort of disease or what? Or perhaps you were feeling violent one night, grabbed the nearest weapon, and...uh...well...you know.

Chestnuts roasted by Nate @ 06/04/2004 01:18 PM EST


The chinchilla died just suddenly out of nowhere. It was completely fine, happy and healthy...then PLOP. The running theory was that he may have grossly overate whatever it was we fed him on That Fateful Night. Oddly, as much as I'd tell anyone to get a chinchilla, I'd probably never buy another.

Roly-poly fish heads are never seen drinking capaccino in Italian restaurants with oriental women.

Yeah.

so far.. highlight of my day! smile

Chestnuts roasted by jessica_76 @ 06/04/2004 04:27 PM EST


Love my fish. One 20-gallon freshwater tank with the ugliest goldfish in the world who I love. I also have my new 10-gallon saltwater tank with live rock and 2 clownfish. It just got started, so I have to wait to introduce new fish. I'm still studying up on what breeds are compatible together. It's tough to maintain the tank, but if you're willing - you do it.
Really like that Dolphin/Whale fish, Matt. Very cool!

Chestnuts roasted by Avery @ 06/04/2004 04:31 PM EST


I got years of the Dr. Demento show bouncing around in my big ol' head. And a love of novelty songs in general. Nothing ruins your "Babylon 5" watching like knowing Bill Mumy sang a song called "Cemetary Girls."

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 06/04/2004 05:17 PM EST


That fish heads song has a really fucked up video (naturally). Basically a bunch of those books where you pulled on the tabs to "animate" the scene except it animated freaky looking animal faces which were "lip-synching" the song. ok, ok enough quation marks already...one of my fave songs from preschool.

Chestnuts roasted by phunqsauce @ 06/04/2004 06:41 PM EST


Did Nickelodeon ever do a video for the fish heads song? I seem to remember shots of them floating in some guy's soup.

As for obscure, what about the full version of Bobby Darin's "Oh, Clementine", sung by Christopher Walken? A song about a fat girl who crashes through a bridge and starts to drown, but the guy won't save her, b/c she's too big to bother.
"Hey, I'm no swimma but were she slimma
I might'a saved that Clementine.
"...Hey you sailor way out in your whaler
With a harpoon, your trusty line.
If she shows now, there she blows now,
It just may be chunky Clementine..."
I bet you never knew what you were singing about when you sputtered out that chorus. Now, just imagine Christopher Walken singing it.

Chestnuts roasted by trajeal @ 06/04/2004 08:24 PM EST


Sean -- you're the man. I knew you'd be able to Name That Fish.

We just picked up two Blue Botias today -- my hunch told me that they were painted, but I held out hope since none of the familiar terms were used. Get home, look 'em up -- yep, they're painted. Really, really blue. Guess they'll be a more pale blue in a few weeks, oh well. They're only about a third the size of the smallest parrot, but are getting along okay so far. We added some caves and whatnot, though they prefer sneaking into coral crevices, which turns the mother (father?) parrot into a lunatic, trying to fish them out of his/her chosen territory. Also: the dolphin HATES the Botias. He's got the worst attack process imaginable, but that's the only thing to call it -- if the chance arrives, dolphin smacks around the blue guys with reckless abandon, never really succeeding in anything but looking silly all the same.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/04/2004 09:01 PM EST


I have a question for kingklash,
Do you know the name of the band who sang "Daddy's Money?" I remember that song fondly cause I ain't got no daddy and I ain't got no money. It was a takeoff of the Stone's.

Chestnuts roasted by kidneyboy @ 06/04/2004 09:17 PM EST


Matt,

Blue botias are pretty cool too, and can get a good size (~6"+). They're usually friendly, and having a couple is a good idea. As for the painting, I've seen some that were naturally a very deep blue (azure, perhaps?). Others faded to a pale blue, but were still very nice.

I forgot to mention earlier--your parrots will probably never be parents without the assisstance of expensive doctors--they're hybrids, so at least one of them will be sterile (but the instinct will still be there). I'm surprised they're not more territorial--most large cichlids won't tolerate anythig else in a tank when they're breeding (unless the fish are armoured like a pleco or fast like an algae eater).

And for the record, I've seen foot long plecos for over $2000 (but they were fancy species).

Remember Saturday morning cartoons? Does anyone remember when the claymation dog and fire hydrant would come on and it would sing "After these mesages, we'll be riiiiight back!" Often this fire hydrant would spray claymation water on the dog. Matt, do you have this on any of your videos? If so, can you upload it so I can see it again? Thanks.

I recently realized I have an irrational/mild fear of fish. Currently, I'm raising my third grasshopper. He's having the same problem my second did: pooping way too much, not eating too often. Hopefully, he won't die during his skin shedding like the last one did. I'm thinking it may be due to the kind of grass I'm feeding it...

Chestnuts roasted by Mike @ 06/05/2004 05:31 PM EST


RewolfJ: Make sure your hoppers are kept humid (not wet so that water is collecting, but so that the substrate they're on is mildly damp). That should help them moult.

Chestnuts roasted by Sean @ 06/05/2004 09:46 PM EST


Sean -- what's your op of adding a crayfish to this tank? Would never work, aye?

The Botias have adapted nicely. They just hide in the coral all day.

We're thinking of adding a pair of baby Geophagus.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/05/2004 09:50 PM EST


Matt,

I wouldn't add a crayfish for a couple reasons--1, they could theoretically catch and eat some of your fish; and 2, they could theoretically be caught and eaten by some of your fish. Instead, a 5 or 10 gallon tank with a corner filter and tight lid is more than sufficient for one (two would probably fight).

As for the Geophagus, have you comsidered getting two or three females (they keep harems) and making (and possibly selling) your own babies? They apparently breed pretty easily, although they may tear up your tank a bit while doing it. There should be lots of info available on it--I've known several people that bred them, some by accident, so it doesn't take a lot of time invested.

Chestnuts roasted by Sean @ 06/06/2004 12:31 AM EST

Chestnuts roasted by heeloyd @ 06/06/2004 01:47 AM EST


Wow Matt, looks like you really put a lot of time and effort into having a great fish tank. I've always though about putting one together, but I have this terrible habit of getting drunk and eating live fish, so I don't think it would work out.

And for the people who mentioned the fish heads video earlier, is that the one with the fish head that bounces along on the lyrics instead of the ball? That video always made me lmao.

Well, back to scrounging around for liqour. I've already drank all the beer in my place and I don't want to go to sleep yet.

Charles- Don't impersonate Matt like that. He does a good job. Besides, it's expensive to put up video like that. I'll bet he's already weeping over the bills due to the extreme bandwidth from the videos that ARE on this website. I remember him mentioning that he was "paying out the ass" for it.

Although I suppose there could be a return of the whales. Not that I care, as that is not my purpose for coming to this site.

I suggest again that when the REAL Matt posts, he could have a different little icon-y guy instead of the cactus head everybody else has. Dunno if it's possible, but it would help avoid confusion. You can tell that CLM's impersonation is fake since it doesn't link back to XE in the sig, but he still managed to confuse if only for a minute or two. Don't impersonate Matt, it's annoying and it's not funny. He would never write something false and sign your name to it. I'd say this also applies to Bitner impersonators. smile
