Hey Guys, I find this so cute I just had to share with you all our fish hard at work making himself a cave under his rock and piling the gravel in a neat pile to make a mountain :) :lol:

click here to see my video

EDIT!! First link does not work... see my next post below for the correct link ;)

I hope you enjoy it :) I know I do :)

BTW he's the only fish in the tank cause he's of the pirahna family of fish (we did not know this when buying him) and he ate all his roommates, I think he might be lonely now so he's making the best of his time in there :)

Edited the title ;)

So what did they want Daddy Kendall's help for anyway?

They didn't want any help :lol: They were pretending to be caught in a whirlwind, if you can hear it our son is also saying "Maddy look at me, I'm going so fast!!" They were just spinning around in the living room behind me.

Maddy? Is that like some weird unholy combination of a mother and father?

Come to think of it, I haven't seen the Corporal in a while...

:P

Thanks Spanky, good memory BTW :)
Rogue Ice... let me spell it out for you, the kids were playing with one another. Our Son's name is John and our Daughter's name is Madison (or Maddy) Is that clear enough :P :lol:

Oh and my husband is fine :) He's still here all in one peice ;) Thank God! I don't know what I'd do without him :)

Yeah I was afraid of the long load times hindering people's viewing experiences. People, really, I promise, it's worth the wait, it's so cute :) I can provide pictures as well if you want a preview but like I said it's not the same without seeing it happen in action ;)

Alright, here are some pics of the fish building his mountain and digging his cave, unfortunatly it's too hard to capture the actual moment when the rock is falling (or being spat) out of his mouth which is why I posted the video instead but it seems nobody is interested enough to wait for the video to load. So here you are, a preview of the video ;)

Image Just for kicks, this is him attacking himself, as he has no other fishies to attack :lol:
ImageGoing in to gather the rocks!
ImageJust missed him dropping the rock there
Image turning around to go back in so he can suck up more rocks
Image This is him coming out from under his rock just after he spat out a peice of gravel, you can actually see his mouth in this one all puckered like he just spat it out :lol:

What a silly fish eh ;)
I find this so cute cause I never saw this happen before even though my dad had a 50 gallon fish tank for half of my life. I used to lie down on the floor in front of it and just watch them swim around, so I'm surprised I never saw anything like this before.

Now, Go! Go download the video, it's cute, I promise ;)

*I hope I didn't upload this video for just a couple people* :P

Yeah apparently, I would say he does it cause he's bored all alone in that ten gallon tank.
