Meet the new family members. We went and picked them out last night. The boys got to hold them on the way home. And who knows how late they stayed up last night watching them. They seem to be happy little fishies.
The funny thing about them is they seem to match the boys personalities. Somehow they picked out their fish equivalent. SweetP chose the "go with the flow" fish. Didn't seem bother by being caught in a net. SweetE chose the "not if I can help it" fish. He zoomed and hid and wiggled and avoided the net. A very independent fish.
We are currently on the second set of names. Last night they were Jr. (Indiana Jones) and Fishy. Today they have been renamed to be Darth Fishy (gold one & sweetP's fish) and Bobba Fishy (white one and sweetE's fish). I told you I can't escape Star Wars.
We also got a snail. We named him Shelton, but the boys call him Gary. If I never see Spongebob again, I will be so happy. He is a speedy little thing. It is fun to see how far he has traveled while we have been away from the tank.
So those are the new family members and friends. The boys love watching them. And they make a nice addition to their room.

Very cute guys, although I am sorry about the sci fi names. We had fish for a long time and really enjoyed them. One day one of the kids and a preschool buddy thought the fishies looked thirsty and poured a glass of chocolate milk in the tank.
Oops.
darth fishy is a great name!
my brother and his daughter bought a big fish tank last summer and stocked it with very expensive exotic fish, which died. now all they have is the shrimp, which lives there happily alone.
The fish are still doing very well. And the names have not changed yet.
