New Editions to the Fishbowl
I got a wild hair and went fish shopping at lunch today. I drove down to the big fish store, but they didn't have anything that I was really interested. I swung by the PetSmart literally across the street from work and they had two beautiful orandas - a blue one (think silverish colored) and a black one with bronze hints. They were kind of expensive ($25 a piece), but since they're around three inches long including the tail, it wasn't a bad price.
I talked Steven into going over there with me after he went to the gym to get one of them. I was set on the black one, but the more I looked at the blue one, the prettier he seemed. Since we're down to just a few fish and only one in the fifty-five gallon tank, I splurged and bought both of them.
We also picked up a new (fake) plant and a large plastic ornament, about a foot high, that looks like gnarled roots. I really like the character that it hads to the tank.
Needless to say, I am quite the happy fish girl right now.

Congratulations on the new additions to your fishy family! They both sound beautiful, and I can't wait to see pictures!
