wouldn't this mean Specky is a little 'him' :?
Nope...it's the dominant fish that can develop a dark stripe under the belly. Doesn't just apply to males :D

Congrats to the winner! A fantastic piccy! :D

Wow. :D

Thanks to everyone who voted for Dictator. He apparently has a speech, but we couldn't make out the words he was mouthing. Maybe it was Burmese. :)

We rewarded 'Tator with a celebratory oyster, which he had Spud' gobbled down leaving a cloud of little pieces so the Army of Sharkness (7 Red Tailed Sharks), and other friends could celebrate too.
