Killifish jump out.

Everyone else have lots of stuff spawning now? Nothing like a power outage "dry season."
Look close for the fry below the male.

Had an apisto put up a bunch of eggs, but the male either shot blanks, or the lack of oxygen in the water caused them to fungus.

No spawning here.

Went into school yesterday. I did a 50% change and swapped the batteries on the pumps (they were working fine, but I don't know how long they can last). All of the fish were still alive and not breathing heavy any more. I also checked on the Oscar. He seemed hungry, but otherwise okay.

Awesome shot of the oscar. Too bad you can't leave him in there year round. Glad everything in the classroom is okay.

In a century or three, I'll be you will.

Of course, Gaithersburg will also be on the Atlantic Coast...

Glad to hear the classroom tank survived.

I ended up losing one Cypricrhomis Leptosoma, and maybe a couple of J. Transcriptus juveniles.

Power came on Wedneday at 10AM. N. leleupi,tiny fry appeared when power was restored.

I was dumb to not have a set of battery operated pumps on hand and now will not be caught without battery pumps ready.

I am glad the fish are doing well.
