Pars Kunt — the animated illustrations in the header are adorable!
Thanks for stopping by! You have stumbled upon the personal website of Sidney Collins (aka Bubs). I'm a 24-year old student at the University of Alabama studying Computer Science and Mathematics. When I'm not busy programming you'll probably find me writing, drawing, reading, shopping, eating, or playing Monopoly.
Apparently, an outbreak of some sort occurred in my aquarium. First, Pinky died. She lived for 4 years, so I knew it was coming. The following day, I woke up to find Blue dead and Big Fins acting strangely. Upon closer inspection I noticed that Big Fins’ fins looked as though they had rotted!
I performed an emergency tank clean and quarantined Big Fins. I also treated the clean tank with a medical solution. The 4 remaining fish seem to be doing ok, but Big Fins is struggling. He now has open sores all over his body
I almost want to just put him out of his misery.
Edit: Big Fins died
It was for the best, though.
Pinky, my pink tetra, passed away this morning. She lived a good long life of 4 years. She was always the smartest of the bunch. At feeding time when the other fish would swarm at the top, she’d patiently wait at the bottom, dining on the food that fell to her. When Big Fins picked on her, she’d hide out in the Octopus Cave. Although I’ll probably buy another pink tetra, Pinky will never be replaced!
Melissa tagged me, so here goes. First and foremost, I blog to meet new people. I’ve met a lot of good friends online through my blog. You can’t really connect with anyone through a static page. People get to know me through my blog posts, which truly reflect who I am. Although I’m not one to discuss personal issues, my blog gives me a place to share my accomplishments
Ashley, Tuan, and Tracy — your turn!
(I finally finished the Perfection forum. It took a lot longer than I expected.)
