Captain Marvel
Captain Marvel
Well, today the inevitable happened...When I got home from work today, I made my way to the fish tank and I found that Chloe II had finally given up the ghost.  It was a good run.  We had purchased her back on May 7 and she lived longer than any of our fish to date. I disposed of her remains and then cleaned up the tank by changing out some of the water and doing a thorough vacuum job on the gravel.


After dinner, we headed for the pet store...again.   I had a nice chat with a very knowledgeable young fellow and he recommended we try our hand with some goldfish, as they are much heartier than mollie fish.  So as of this evening, we now have two new fish.  One fish is a Calico Fantail and the other is a Black Moor.  I have dubbed the fish "Captain Marvel" and "Black Adam," respectively...and yes, I am that big of a geek!

I have decided that there's really no point in uploading pictures of the new fish at this point, given that we have gone through them pretty quickly up to now.  If they make it past thirty days, then perhaps we'll share them with everyone.  Keep your fins crossed!
