Our Newest Additions!!

All those little orange flecks in my dirty tank (gross, sorry) are babies and that is just one corner!!there are a ton.
Rick took the kids yesterday to buy crickets for the boys frogs (we are babysitting them this week)and came home with some new fish. We only had one sword tail fish left from when we first got them last year. They got a female sword tail and some neon tetras. I was thinking great more things to feed clean care for, GREAT!! The kids were excited so whatever. Well as I walked past the tank on my way to bed after watching Phelps win one more GOLD I noticed one of the tetras was belly up and then something else caught my eye. The food was darting around. Hum strange I thought . I flipped on the light to see like 40 babies with big eyes staring back at me!!!!I total freaked out. So I spent the next hour researching what to do. They are nets and dividers and who knows what else is suppose to be involved. Most fish eat the little ones so now I have four big fish in my sink waiting for the morning. What A Day! I still don't know what to do but at least they won't get eaten tonight.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALI!! I hope turning thirteen was awesome.We love you.

Wow, sounds exciting at your house. So, I totally know that I need to get my sibs to blog, but they NEVER will. Buffer is totally freaked out about the whole thing and has gotten everybody else freaked out about it too, you know her preach doom's day! Anyhoo, it's really too bad cause they all have such cute kids.
