Sheldon and the Fish

We got new pets!! Well, if you count a fish and tiny frog as pets, which we do. Since our old fish, Ollivander, went the way of all the earth a few months ago,(RIP Ollivander) we decided it was time to get some new fish.

The guy at petsmart advised getting just a couple fish to build up the "good bacteria" and such in the tank before investing in cute little tiny ones that are pink (can you tell who wanted one of those?). So, we got Sheldon and his friend the fish.

I am accepting name suggestions for the fish, none have really stuck yet. Please leave a comment with any suggestions about a name. I'm pretty sure he's a him, just so you know. He is a "dalmatian molly" fish who looks a little like this:


Our little frog, Sheldon (so named for a character on the show Big Bang Theory), is pretty much the most adorable thing I've ever owned. He's only about an inch long and he's also thinks he's a ninja. When he thinks you're not around or looking, he'll swim all over the tank. It's adorable. This is what he looks like, it's kind of hard to get a good shot of him in the aquarium:



I think we'll go back tomorrow and get a few more members to add to our aquatic group. So, stay tuned...
