New Fish

We've bought three new fish!

Our only remaining baby goldfish was looking a bit lonely, so we decided we'd get him some friends. We took along a toy fish about the same size, which caused much amusement in the shop. Anyway, after much deliberating, we got three little fish to keep Donkey company they were:

  • Trevor, another common goldfish

  • Huck, a red and white oranda (as in Huckleberry Finn, get the pun?)

  • Tom, a red-capped oranda (as in Tom Sawyer, Huck's friend)
At first Donkey wasn't too happy with his new friends, but after about ten minutes he seemed to settle down. Trevor, on the other hand, hid behind a scallop shell for the first two days, but now is a happy member of the shoal. It's nice to have a mix of different types of fish now, we hadn't realised how amusing orandas could be!

Strangely, Trevor is smaller than Donkey, but Trevor is fully coloured and Donkey isn't (he completely grey). We're not too sure what's going on there, but we think maybe we need a proper light, or perhaps need to feed him a more diverse diet.
