The month of January has been so busy for me, I haven’t had any time to update this Blog.  In the month of January, we’ve had some massive snow falls here in the Greater Vancouver area and a few trees fell in the area I live causing numerous power outages for us.

We had two power outages which lasted over 24hours, and I was getting really worried becuse my fish tank temperatures dropped down to like 16 degrees Celsius when the power went out since the heater wasn’t working anymore.  Luckily, during both outages I didn’t lose any fish even thought the temperature dropped so much.

My Oscars looked really cold, and they huddled together at the bottom of the tank to conserve heat I think, but once the power came back on and the temperature slowly started to rise they were back to normal as usual.  In my other tank, all my fish survived both power outages with no ill effects due to the temperature drop, so that was good.

The Oscars are growing rather quickly and they are always hungry.  I call them my little “Piggy’s” because all they ever want is food.  In fact, right now as I’m writing this they are staring at me through the glass waiting for their food.  If I don’t give it to them, they’ll start splashing soon and making noise to tell me it’s time for food again, hehehe.  They are very cheeky, but I totally enjoy them.

I’ll try to get some newer pics up soon.
