It's Monday, so how about some Arts and Crafts? In honor of Republic of Palau and Mrs Tarquin Biscuitbarrel, may I offer you this page of corydoras catfish models? I actually have some others somewhere, believe it or not. I'll see if I can find them.
They're gif files. Download, print them out, cut them out, fold them, and glue them together. It helps to pre-score the fold lines if you're using paper heavier than standard printer weight, you can do that with a ballpoint pen that's out of ink. And it's probably best to apply glue with a toothpick. But since they're free, you can go ahead and get it wrong a few times in practice.

Oh, way cute. A mobile of little catfish is going to be a helluva lot cheaper than an aquarium.
I dunno about the paper models, but when I had an aquarium the live corydoras were the most entertaining little guys. I had five aeneus corys who'd often be seen chasing each other in verticle figure-eights up and down the tank, then diving into the sand on the bottom, then back to the chase. They were the only fishies I had who seemed as if they actually enjoyed life to the point of exuberance. If I'd kept the tank I was only going to have them in it, but alas... (as all fish stories end...)
