finding Nemo
On the weekend Chicky and I went to the pet store in search of love. You see, while we were on our honeymoon, all our goldfish went to the great bowl in the sky. Sadly enough we had to dismantle the tank when we got back in preparation for the move. In the pet store I stood by the puppies pointing at them in hopes that Chicky would change his mind about fish and get us a dog. I was disappointed.
Alas Chicky's need for his saltwater tank has come to fruition. He sacrificed his Subaru car and is now sporting a Honda Fit. To make up for a flashy car - he's invested time and effort into setting up this pretty tank. It's a whole new tank and supplies. It's now day 4 and he's still trying to get the ecosystem right. We've discovered that our floor in the cubby hole (where this tank has taken residence) is not level. It's too late to try to fix that problem.
What's in the tank right now is bacteria, sand, coral and a little crab. When the water temperature and saline stabilize - we'll begin getting the sea creatures. Where's Nemo?!
More pictures of the tank can be found in my web album.
