lauraanne_gilmanI'm going to wait at least four months before making a decision about an actual tropical tank.
I may get a goldfish or three to test the waters before then, however.
And yes, I did just say that. My brain seems to be set on pun this week. Sorry.
(I blame this renewed fascination with fish, btw, on the submersible trip we took while on vacation. I was having flashbacks to my dad's tropical tank, which was filled with goruami and black mollies and other silver- and red- and green-flicking fins and tails of various lacy bits. And the occasional shark, natch, because what's a tank without a shark? This was also where we discovered that rock and roll played at teenager levels kills tropical fish. Really. Catfish, on the other hand, can live through everything. Must've been Delta catfish.)
----------------------------------------------
The cats, when consulted about all this, had mixed options. Boomer was all for it. Pandora, as expected, thought adding another thing to the household that would take attention away from Her was a Bad Thing*. She's consistent, my princess is...
* the S.O. is acceptable because he gives her due homage, apparently.
