Our Fish Get Seen, Again.

Oscar White Today


In Hebrew, "Dag," which sounds a bit like the word Dog in English, means fish. Well this "Dag," was raised on dry dog food. Take a look at him about a year ago next to the same "Giant" (Talk about a misnomer!) Danio, you'll see that he was not malnourished.

Did He Measure Up?

Our Fish Get Seen!

My Favorite Species. The Danio

This is my favorite species of aquarium fish. Athough known as the "Giant Danio," I have only once seen one over 3 inches long.

This picture was taken in the pet store in the Malcha shopping mall in Southern Jerusalem.

Our Danio

This guy is hard to photograph. You see his tail there just behind Oscar White? Oh by the way, meet Oscar White. He's the newest addition to our aquatic display.


Here's the Danio hiding behind Mr. White again.

Oscar Black

Here's the old man of the tank. He's been around for years. The recent arrival of another Oscar fish has necesitated the appendage of the sir name "Black" for distinction from Oscar White. Amazing fish, this old Oscar. We feed him on dry dog food. You can hear the stuff crunching in his powerful jaws from across the room.


Oscar Black Again...

All those years in the kitchen and not once did this Oscar offer to do the dishes!

And that, my dear readers, is the difference between him and me!
