Showdown

Chris and I are dog people. If only we had a yard, or at least a house to keep one in. But alas, our apartment complex does not allow animals, and the only alternative to satisfying our want for a pet is to get.. fish. So a couple weeks ago we decided to go ahead and get a 20 gallon tank. That's right, we jumped right in, none of this solo beta fish bowl business. We've got the filter, a heater, bubbly-er.., fake plants, and even some actual shells in there! We have been adding fish slowly (as to not kill them all due to the Nitrate/amonia levels, thanks Jay's Jungle girl). This past weekend we added four Neon Tetras to the tank. Our other two plati's weren't too happy about the fantastic four. (We're still tryin to come up with a name for the four..the fab four like the beatles perhaps.. or maybe we'll stick with our theme and go with the Freighters..) Once we put the fish (still in bag) into the aquarium Echo would immediately start ramming himself into the clear plastic bag...either to intimidate or perhaps just for fun..who really knows..but we got a kick out of it.
