Our new pet - OT
| Wed, 06-30-2004 - 5:14pm |
Had the urge to buy a goldfish today as I was driving to WalMart. I bought a good size vase, polished river stones, and at the pet store, got a Black Moor, the fat bulbousy-looking fish with the fancy tails and big googley eyes. I rinsed everything well when I got home, and deposited Oscar in there, along with a Philodendron plant that I kept in a vase of water (it REFUSES to grow in dirt, so in the vase it stays)and he resides on our kitchen table. Fish boy at the store said plants were fine - they will nibble at them though. He is SO cut, just bopping around in there !
***And just to clarify, I am in NO WAY attempting to compete with Shawna in the pet collecting department. Oscar is more ornamental than anything els. It's not like you can take him out and play with him. Well, you CAN, but that would suck for Oscar.***

That's a great idea!

**Edited to say--I don't think you could compete with Shawna in the pet dept unless you bought a zoo!

Hey hey!
I can't decide if Oscar is cute or homely. He is a mouth breather so it looks like he's always talking.
For all of you that think this is a good idea, it's really simple to set up - get a glass vase that holds around a gallon of water, some polished river stones or fish rocks, and a rooting plant.
