For six years we had a few goldfish. After that, we kept a freshwater tropical aquarium for a while and then gave up because despite all the scrupulous labor invested we weren't very good at it. When I took this photo, the aquarium was two weeks new and in it were guppies and neon tetras and snails and a couple of sucker fish and several teeny tiny transparent catfsh and two African dwarf aquarium frogs.
Rarely did the frogs present themselves and when they did it was one at a time. They hid. H.o.p. named them Kermit, both of them, as we couldn't tell the difference between the two yet for we only saw them one at a time and they were so similar that to our eyes we were unable to note any distinguishing markings.
Kermit 1, or Kermit 2, came out for a bit the day of this photo.
I always worried the frogs would starve as we rarely saw them and thus never saw them eat.
