fishy...

Sometime in December, a group of us were at Market and Ian wanted to go visit the aquarium because he wanted to get some fish for his newly renovated room. Although he didnt end up getting any fish, i suddenly decided, after looking at all those pretty colours just loafing around, that i wanted to get some.

Adam and i talked about getting fish and we kept having to put it off cuz we've been so busy and the timing of things have just been really hard. Today, we finally got them!! we were gonna get those puffy fish from the acquarium at silverstar called "golfballs" that were actually shaped exactly like a golf ball (same size and everything) but then i knew adam found them a little boring so we were kinda still thinking. either way we knew we were gonna get the pretty glass tank from market village cuz we didn't find them anywhere else.

while we were there, this enthusiastic kooky chinese salesman sold us a tank, a filter with waterfall, and he managed to sell us some fish too. we saw these fish called "christmas light bulbs" because their back had a streak of glowing neon colour. there were a variety of colours to choose from and we got one of each: green, blue, pink, purple, and orange. we named them after fruits (haha): honeydew, cantaloupe, raspberry, grape, and blueberry, i'm sure you can match the colours to the fish..teehee. the fish were buy 5 get 1 free, but i managed to get 5 for the price of 4 (my asian haggling skills kicking in). no tax too!

we haven't gotten rocks and decorations for them, but we're working on that!

the only thing im worried about now is transferring the tank to loo...and the fact that the kooky guy was practically abusing the fish when we got it...so i dunno how long it's actually gonna live!! im worried! but we'll see.
