New Fishies!

Well, with Wiggles gone, there was only Kibbles left and my tank felt really empty. So I stopped by the pet store today and got two little friends for Kibbles.

The first one is a calico fantail


The other one is also a fantail (I think). I just love the colors.


They're both really small... and I'm really hoping that they're healthy (young fish like that can be pretty fragile, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they'll grow up healthy and strong). Right now they look just fine and they're full of energy.

I don't have names for them yet. Any suggestions?

I think I found names for them. Since they're so small, I'm gonna call the calico one PeeWee and the orange and white one Tiny
And when they grow up to be really big, it'll just be funny

Pretty fishies!

Very pretty fishies!

BTW Marie- we have seahorses now? I have a thread for them on this forum if you'd like to see them- My Little (sea)Ponies.

Seahorses? COOL!!
I don't think I could ever have such fragile fish though... I'd be too scared of making a small mistake and loosing them.

I'm already not having much luck with the goldfish. PeeWee isn't doing well His fins are all limp and he doesn't swim around much... just sorts of floats around or lies on the bottom most of the time.
I don't know what to do except hope that he can pull through.

Sorry to say poor little PeeWee didn't make it

Now I'll have to check all the pet stores around here to try to find another fantail calico. They're so pretty!

Poor Peewee.

well, I went back to the pet store where I got PeeWee and they were all out of fantail calicos.

So I went on a search of a new pet store today and I found one that had a lot of different kinds of goldfish and not a sick fish in sight. They had a tank full of PeeWee twins. So I got a brand new fish:



Pretty, huh?
I just hope he's really healthy.

Very pretty, yes. Hope this guy makes it

Great pics!!, I love goldfish
