You know what is another very good genus of tiny marine gobies?

The genus Tryssogobius!

I really wanted a half-decent meal tonight.

So, here’s hoping that after a rest I will have somewhere near enough spoons to go ahead and do that overdue water change on the big tank 😩

(Another reason I like to do that on Fencing Night usually. If I have a sandwich or something instead of cooking for everyone, that may leave more spoons for hauling water. Off plan tonight, though.)
