You Should Be a Film Writer

You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind.
You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life.
Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling.
And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen!


So Dark... wanna write a film together?

In other news, I bought a new aquarium for the front desk. It's 20 gallons and will replace the 10 gallon one. It is not being filled completely, as there is a newt named Chester who needed a place with space for him to be more above the water on dry land. I was going to convert the 10 gallon at first, but it's getting to the point where it has a lot of calcium deposits, the outside glass is chipping, and though it was the right size for Rivendell, it looks tiny in New Gondolin.

Still have the 30 gallon in the lounge area. That isn't going anywhere, unless I score a 55 gallon from the pet shop, which is closing in December.

I'm going to let the new tank filter the entire weekend. I innoculated it once from the existing tank already. The 10 gallon is going to be converted into a betta breeding tank. I'm going to breed Joanie with Analu. Analu keeps making huge ass bubble nests, so I figure, you know, why not. If that works, eventually I might try to breed David Lee with Panama. I'd do it the other way around, but Joanie already has eggs and Panama's still pretty young.

I won't breed Ecthelion or Prince. Thel's just plain mean; Prince hasn't been quite right since he fell off the counter that one day -_- He will swim over the top of his plants until he finds a spot where he is damp, but half out of the water, and sit there. Scared me the first time. He'll stay like that about an hour or so before going back into the water. Crazy fish. So, I don't trust him to bring up the baby fish.

With Sammy, he's content to watch the other fishies kids, so I think he'll get moved to the big tank when Joanie moves out of there. And then there's Glorfindel... he hides. All the time. He's getting a little blue on his fins now that he's maturing and all (he's the baby of all of the bettas; Analu's even older, but a little smaller). I'm going to try putting him in the new tank (eventually) with Chester, the cherry barbs, and some swordtails. I'm hoping he doesn't freak over the swordtails. Some do, some don't. I think because he's so timid though (funny name for a timid fish) he won't attack them.

Well, then, back to it...the tank has to sit for at least a week before I can really put anything in it.. Monday is plants...
