My aquarium

Here's a few shots with my camera, I thought they turned out pretty good.

No editing or anything. In order that they appear.


^My snail. He looks like an elephant, really he's the size of a large marble. I call him "Eley". He's so cute. Good clarity for such a close up especially through glass and water, which can really distort your object.


^My whole tank


^My betta, Merlot.

The last photo is of my Juili Cory Catfish. It's a bit blury though. His name is Heart, because when he spreads his dorsal fin, the black spot is in the shape of a perfect heart.

That's a pretty betta you got! One of my bettas got sick for a little while, and his tail got all ugly. I miss that full tail that bettas have.

He eats out of my hand now! And he "flares" at me if Im by his tank and don't give him a treat. He's so cute, you wouldn't believe how much personality this guy has!
