Its been two weeks now and the fry are proceeding just fine. There are now 50 or so free swimming fry which hang roughly in two groups. The larger and darker colored tend towards the top of the tank and the smaller lighter (presumably younger) spend most of the time at the bottom.
I went to the PETsMART store on Elston near Diversey on Saturday morning to buy a little aquarium to house my newborns. I found one for $10 but discovered when I got home with it that one of the corners was severely cracked. I took it back and since there were no more 2 1/2 gallons left I was talked into an $18.00 replacement. I got $10 in credit and paid the additional $8 and was on my merry way.
As it turns out this one didn't suit my needs and, as I was assured by the eager sales person that I could always return it, I took it back as well and asked for a refund. After extensive calculation the cashier prepared to hand me $8. I said I was owed $18, she disagreed.
