more fish friends

We have acquired new additions in our fish tank. Jon picked them up on Thursday. There's a clown fish and a peppermint shrimp. Neither have names yet.

I think Shiloh (the blue damsel) is happy to have another tank mate. They get along great. The Clown took a few days to get used to the tank, but he now is comfortable enough to swim merrily around the tank. He's such a cutie! I love clown fish.

Patrick the star is moving around the tank more than he did when we first got him too. You never really see him moving, but boy does he get around! He'll be on one side of the tank, and then next thing you know, he's on the other side, or sitting on top of the rocks. You can see him up in the left side of the tank in the first picture.

The shrimp is pretty cool. He kinda sways back and forth as he walks. And we've seen him sitting right on top of the starfish as well. He's more active now and moves around the tank a fair bit. And he's see-through! How cool is that? He's got these super long antenae/feelers and just looks funny.

And remember the worm I mentioned the other day? Well, Jon did some research and found out what it is. It's a bristle worm, and we've got to try and trap it. They sting, and could be dangerous for the poor fishies.

And there's the latest chapter in our fish story.
