Hi I got back into goldfish in Feb. due to a freeze of my tropical fish. Fearing mosquitoes after ths total loss I put some "feeder" goldfish in the 5x10 pool. Anyway they spawned ,I'm guessing 3 times judging fron the sizes of the offspring. When about an inch long had nmany different colors including brown and black. The older ones are now either completely gold or white and gold. Some complete whites . Have also noticed some are growing the long flowing fins not displayed in the originals. these are also becoming very white in the fins only. a couple have fins twice body length already. Amazed at the variety ,considering the parents are just very ordinary solid colored short finned .typical goldsish lol Don't know what I'll do when they spawn again as I'm guessing there are well over 100 in less than a year. I was never able to keep GF in the past due to Herons But if they're catching some it's sure not obvious!!! lol. gary

Hi Beetle. Yes I have that many Appleblossom seedlings. I did separate them and posted pics on this thread linked below. I'm sure I'll be giving them away or maybe sell them at a local gardenclub or something but I want to see them all bloom first! I would give them as gifts, but I'd be really sad if I gave them away and the person just let them die. Most people wouldn't have the patience to take care of them for another year or two before seeing a bloom and I think they'd get bored and let it go, ya know? Thanks again for the encouragement. Here is a link that might be useful: photo thread

When I first saw all the other gorgeous entries I felt a little like my green caterpillar surrounded by all the beautiful butterflies! I love all the interpretations and everyone did an amazing job! I'm so honored just to be in this group and thank you Marti for coming up with such a fun idea that really brought out a lot of creativity and individuality from everyone. And THANKS to all who voted for me! Your support and kind words mean so much! --Amy

Thanks, Tamara! With good practices (by no means guaranteed with the huge volume of pages) the change should have taken about five minutes. It's nice to see the staff being so responsive and quick. That was one functional issue that really impacted the user comfort. I'm going to keep using the add-on, though, because the grey has poor contrast with the green and especially the normal text. The default color on the add-on is a light orange that contrasts nicely with the green so I didn't even change it. :) Lascatx, a lot of the add-ons that are available for Firefox are also available for Chrome, IE and Safari, sometimes Opera. I just don't know a lot about them. Hopefully, you won't need it now. :) In general, any kind of wish you have for your browser has probably been addressed by an add-ons programmer, some more successfully than others. For instance, tracking really slows down the loading of a lot of sites, and you can use Ghostery to choose which trackers you want (inc. social media buttons). If you want to change the appearance of anything there are themes and display customizers. If you say to yourself, "I really wish it did X", do a search on the keywords for X and the name of your browser, maybe also "add-on" and start reading. Sometimes you'll land right on it. Sometimes in a forum where people make recommendations. Just make sure to download from a trusted source, and if you don't like the add-on, remove it, so you don't have a bunch of junk slowing down the program.
