Thanks shulace, you are right. It's a sweet fish. He has some mechanism by which he can stick to the glass. Now I know what to feed it.

All gobies have the ability to stick to glass thanks to a set of fused pelvic fins.

Sandtiger, you totally deserve that mod spot. Thanks for the info. Learning is the key to success, and you know your stuff. I am done kissing your a** now and you can go. LOL

You may also be interested to know that the goby family (Gobiidae, go figure) is one of the largest families of fishes. Over 2,000 species. Some of the smallest vertebrates known to man are gobies.

Alright, I'll stop showing off now.

Did you know that if you packed all of the people in the world into the state of Texas, it would still be less densely populated than New York is right now?
