Since everyone is posting pictures of real-life fish, I figured that I'd introduce you to my fish.

This here is Castor, a Blackfin Cory (
Corydoras leucomelas). He rests in peace in the big Pond in the Sky now.

This is Callista. She's my only surviving Blackfin Cory. She was mate to Castor and Pollux. She is the mother of Pollux's only son, Andromeda. Unfortunately a velvet outbreak killed Castor and Andromeda. Pollux died in an accident involving the carbon dioxide machine.

This is Callista again... doing one of her funny poses!

A bad picture of Pollux. The fish looking at you above Pollux is Castor.


This is Redshift, my lone male Cherry Barb (
Puntius titteya). He lives happily with a harem of four girls.


Redshift with two of his girls.

Left to right: Greycherry, Redshift, Marachrisno. I think the fish hiding behind Marachrisno is Zipper.

More pictures to come in the next post as I scrounge them up from my portable hard drive!
