current status

Added four more fish; a black molly, a dalmatian molly, and a couple more guppies, black and yellow. Decided to feed everybody, and all the new fish ate like crazy. K2 seemed horrified at the entire occurrence, hovering in the back corner and not eating, until the yellow swam up and they were all "aw yeah, you my nigga" and they're all schooling together now. The tank seems pretty segregated, though, with the mollies hanging out on the right and the guppies on the left, with the dalmatian molly running over there and scattering guppies every so often. The mollies appear to be way more gangsta than the guppies, which is troubling, since a molly is like the size of four guppies put together, but they aren't even semi-aggressive, so it should work out okay. Meanwhile, the rubber-lipped plecostomus remains unaffected by the festivites, and is still stuck to the back glass. Hopefully, everybody makes it this time, but I've put in about four gallons of the store-bought good water, so I remain hopeful. The black guppy did get his tail fins all screwed up somewhere in transit, but he did seem to be the hungriest and most active of the three in there, so things look good for now. Stay tuned for further details.
