For those of you who have asked, here is a fish update. The goldfish moved out to their summer home in my son's pond for the warm months where they are likely gorging on mosquito larvae and anything else that strays into the water. Last year they got frisky and created some little babies which survived the move indoors and grew quite well in the office tank over the winter. Recently we discovered that the big fish must have left some eggs behind in my tank as little silver babies have appeared. Some of them are growing while others are quite tiny which leads me to suspect more are still hatching. I have been able to count 8 at one time but an accurate count is very difficult. Maddox counted 9 but his eyes are much younger than mine. Feel free to try and count them when you are in the office and eventually we may know for sure.
