Vlad - Portrait

Do you notice something missing from Vlad? Or maybe two things? That's right - Vlad has no dorsal fin, and no left ventral fin! He came from Petco where he was dying of septicemia - probably went unbought for weeks due to his deformities. His name, Vlad, is actually an acronym Ventral (Left), And Dorsal, signifying his missing fins. He now lives with me in a nice little five gallon aquarium, where no one notices that he's a bit different.
