We’ve added two pearscales to the aquarium. Meet Princess Miyako and Princess Osagi. We plucked those names out of the air. When I later googled Osagi and Miyako, we found that Osagi is the acronym for the UN’s Office of the Special Adviser on Gender Issues and Advancement of Women, and Miyako is a popular name for japanese restaurants. Guess which fish C had picked and which one I did? These fish were meant for us.

Oh, they’re just beautiful! I’ve always loved goldfish–the plain variety right on up through the fancies. They just don’t get enough respect. Gorgeous tank you have!

Hi Geraldine, the princesses are awfully cute. Being short, they wiggle furiously when they swim and their bellies jiggle
I gotta credit C with maintaining the tank. ‘Cors she spoils the fish too.
Thanks for writing in.
