David and I recently became the happy parents of 28 baby fish! To our great surprise our new Black Molly fish gave birth on Friday to a hoard of small black specks (see if you can make them out in the picture!). Apparently Molly fish have live births and the females can remain fertilized for up to three pregnancies! Yikes, where will we put them all? All of the babies are doing fine so far, maybe we'll start a fish farm when they grow up.

I didn't know fish could have live births, that's crazy! Maybe you should send some baby fishies to me :).
