Tank Tinker

This Tank Tinker page was started during the two months when I was serving notice at Huawei International.

The name is intended as a pun for the Think Tanks that are frequently quoted for their professional opinions on the higher level problems of this world. Me? I just set up a fish tank and tinker with it. And whenever some thoughts strike me on the interesting parallels between the occurences of the inhabitants of the aquarium and the world I wander through daily, I will just blog it here.

The Small Guppy Fries

I bought a guppy which happened to be pregnant when exploring solutions for dealing with insects which fell into the tank because I read that guppies have big appetites.

Shortly after, it spawned about 10 fries. Just some observations on how the small fries interacted with the other occupants of the tank.
