My fish are named Major, Minor, Dorian, Lydian, and Diminished. The only way I can tell them apart is by their scales.

I am sure this one will draw some flac. Just remember, it is just a fish joke.

What is the definition of a show guppy?

It's one which you show to the oscar before feeding it to him.

I like wrong jokes.

Still, I happen to be going to a meeting of Poecilia today, the Dutch Lifebearers Association. I wonder whether to tell this joke or not :)

My club had a lady who spoke on fancy guppies last year. I told her the joke, but I prefaced it by saying I personally had no issues with guppies or with people who keep them and that it was just meant to be funny.
She loved it and said she was going to tell it at the upcoming meeting of her guppy association.

My livebearer of choice were the Montezumae. I kept three different strains over the years before they petered out. They are notorious fry eaters and they will actually stop spawning for months at a time. Plus, when the males get big, they also get too slow to catch the ladies.

Here we fully agree. I had X montezumae combined with a cichlid, - now - Nosferatu pame, which had fry, and I intended to raise some. So I took a net and pulled it through the cloud of fry. But much to my surprize, I did not catch any cichlid, only Xipho´s. I did not even know they had fry, so I was quite happy with them.

But catching the little cichlids, less than a cm each, the joke was definitely on me :)

Well just for the Halibut.

Yes - It was my boy's favorite cartoon growing up. He and I would watch it in French and try to translate. We memorized the theme song. It was a shame that the live action version didn't live up to the cartoon. :-( It's been my avatar on YouTube for years. One day, the Code Lyoko copyright people will come after me and I'll need to change it. That'll be a sad day.

See the explanation here (https://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/vie ... 85#p287585):

And my avatar is the symbol of X.A.N.A., a malevolent artificial intelligence which exists in a virtual world and is intent on destroying the real world, from the French cartoon, Code Lyoko. This cartoon was another favorite of my kids. X.A.N.A. does not describe me (I'm neither malevolent nor intelligent), but we do float around here in this virtual world of cyberspace, so that applies to me. And since this is an international forum, I thought a French symbol would be apropos.

Cheers, Eric
EDIT: As of 06 March 2024, the X.A.N.A. avatar symbol is put to rest and is now replaced with my own avatar:

Is it just my impression, or are big pharma companies coming here to find the names for their next new drugs? Cases in point, specific epithets in the genus :
  • berbixae
  • leniceae
  • pataxo
  • xerente

A newfie went ice fishing. Heard a voice.” There’s no fish there” Gets up, goes a few feet further. Digs a hole and starts fishing again. Again, he hears the voice. “There’s no fish there” Newfie looks up, is that you Lord No, said the voice. “It’s the Manager of the Arena.”

You could still register your favourite drugs under any of these names - they are free.

PATAXO is, however, often used for restaunts and foodstuff in Portugese speaking countries.

We all have our jobs, mine is trademarking

Grandad and his grandson Billy are searching in the for fishing worms to use as bait. They are coming across many different insects but nothing suitable to use for bait until little Billy proudly holds up a long dangling insect.

Little Billy exclaims "I found some bait grandad".

Grandad responds "sorry Billy we can't use that. It is not an earthworm."

Little Billy replies "well what planet does it come from Grandad."

Three priests were fishing on a boat when they ran out of bait. The first priest got up and walked across the water to get some more bait. After two hours they ran out of bait again and the second priest said he would go get more bait, so he got up and walked across the water. After three hours of fishing, they ran out of bait again and the third priest said he would get more bait. So, he stepped out of the boat and went straight to the bottom.
The first priest turned to the second priest and asked, “Should we have told him where the rocks were?”
