On the subject of fish...
These are my angelfish. Unlike Catt, I have no imagination and they remain nameless.
The female is on the right. If you look closely on the left,you will see eggs on the slate, and the male is cleaning them. |

They take turns cleaning the eggs - taking any debris off them, and picking out any infertile eggs that have fungus on them. They also fan them to keep a flow of water going over them. After all this tender loving care, they then eat them.
