The Fish







I was visiting my mom the other day and she was looking at this fish tank next to her and commented 'is the fish dead?'  My mom has some memory loss/dementia and that was her perception.  On closer inspection I think they were just sleeping, do you agree?

She is concerned about the fishes - a good sign isn't it?!

I suppose fish need to sleep, too. Hugs, Valerie

I've seen fish do that. Love the flower pot in there.

Mine like to sleep, too! I just wish they would close their eyes!

When they are dead, they float belly up.

I can't really tell from the photo but I'm guessing it's possible.

i can't tell but would love an aquarium but only if i could afford a service to come in every few days and clean it and keep it balanced with whatever it needs. We have tried having one but it always fails.

My wife's mother had a suckerfish in her tank. It was the only thing that survived in that tank. It didn't do much, I always joked that if it died we might not notice. But it did.

I'm not really sure, it's an interesting photo though and I'm glad you get to see your mom.

Adam I think they are suckerfish, I notice they kind of 'sucker' to the aquarium wall with that mouth.
