There is something EVIL in my fishtank

skoosiepantsSomething is picking off my congo tetras one by one. It's an established tank. I have no idea what's happening, but I've lost three fully mature congos in less than a week, and a fourth one just turned up a little beat this afternoon. And if you know congo tetras, they're big and gorgeous and just about my favorite fish in the tank, other than a school of clown loaches. I suspect my buenos aires tetras. They're the most aggressive fish in the tank, and even then... the sort of damage being done seems a lot more than those nippy fish. The congos' fins weren't even touched - it was all head and body - and the fins are the first part to shred when a fish is getting beaten up. So it's like this huge mystery. I just... I'm just so upset. I had those congos for about four years now.
On a somewhat lighter note, I've updated my fic recs page again. Three popslash and one Harry Potter. I highly recommend the HP one - H/D crack ficlet, and you know me and crack! Also, the popslash one, Ficcish, is just hysterical, and really isn't slash at all - slight references to a couple that isn't in it. So if slash ain't your bag, but you want to try out some boybanders, this is the fic to read.
I submitted Nudge to AT, but it isn't up yet. I'll let you know!
Annoying tagline reminder: January is the Month of Ron! Please send me your recs, endorsements, random fits of inspiration.

Date: 2005-01-07 02:30 pm (UTC)I had fish once... the big ones ate the littlest, very traumatising for a 10 year old. They all died shortly after that - must have been goldfish karma.
Also just had to add, YEA FOR MONTY PYTHON!!! I mean really, if you don't like it, there must be something wrong with you :P
Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot.
He was not afraid to die, O brave Sir Robin!
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin!
He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp,
Or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken;
To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away;
And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin!
His head smashed in and his heart cut out
And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged
And his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off
And his pen...
