Shoo Fly!

[eatyourpeas]

Oh dear, tank cleaning day and I was confronted with a very ugly reality full of little eyes staring right at me: a fly in the tank!

I think what happened is when I fed Miss Ethel she did not quite eat one of the bloodworms and it sank to the bottom of the tank. I thought she would go back for it, eventually. Well, no. The insect went through its cycle and became a fly.

Lesson learned: there is a new meaning to "overfeeding" and left over food. Remove, remove, remove, yikes!

I love spiders, but definitely not fond of flies.

Do you happen to have a picture? I would love to see it!

I squashed it, pulverized with a laser beam... but it looked like this before becoming puree:

Perhaps I can send a delicious habanero sauce your way to enhance the flavour?
