Spot's Scandal:	He is in a sad state, my Spot. I do not take responsibility for this however as he was grayish and half dead when my sister bought him from the dastardly petstore that is also disease ridden and unkempt. I am currently nursing him back to health and almost all signs of fin rot are gone on him. He is regaining color in his pectoral fins and I think on his head, it also appears that the gaping hole-turned tear in his anal fin might be starting to heal as well.

My Babies:	I have four hatchet fish (aka Hatchet Fish Mafia), two golden barbs (aka Yellow5 and Yellow6), two split tail goldfish (Alexandre [my fat plant destroyer]and Coach McGuirk [a cute littler one]), a single lonely fantailed thingy that I forget the species of (named Sunny), a little black molly (aka Shadow), a placostomus (aka El Byro), and 3 ghost shrimp (Aunt Jemima, Sparky, and Shylock), and (seperately) a betta named Spot.

The Spot Miracle:	As I would love to take full credit for bringing Spot back from death's doorstep (he was a-knockin') I feel that I must endorse and condemn the products that I attempted to cure him with. First, the condemnation as it was a total waste of my four dollars and time and it was the first thing I tried: Aquarium Products Plus+ Anti-Fungus with Malachite Green. I don't know if it was because spot didn't have fungus or what, but all this stuff did was turn the water quite green. NOW THE ENDORSEMENT: m
