My pot of gold

Well actually it's more like an tank with 3 goldfish and your regular goldfish-bowl ornaments.
Actually out of the three, the pedigree of two of them is suspect, which leaves me with a black gold fish in an aquarium with ornaments which dosent really give leave me anything in gold. So much for my Irish fantasy of my very own pot of gold!

But anyway, whoever said that fish are boring and don't have a personality - they are so wrong!! Chloe is the more energetic one who swims around as if the bowl contains coffee instead of water, quite a feisty little thing she is, bullying the guys. Bobo is this chilled out dude who floats around all day taking in the scenery of my room and the wallpaper on the back of the aquarium. And the latest edition is Moses, the black goldfish; the only one whose origins are legit. He is a lot slower than the other two, who dart from across the tank to grab his food. God knows what seas he will part if the need ever arises!

The pet store owner enlightened me on how new pet owners treat their fish like new parents treat their new born - running to him to help with the smallest thing. I must add he is very good salesman, considering we went to the store to buy a new fish bowl as the old one broke and we came back home with Moses, a mini aquarium, and all that bling to keep the fish happy. The fish seem to love this little strip that feeds little oxygen bubbles into the tank, it's like their very own massage chair.

I must confess before i got these 3 little guys i never really understood the fuss pet owners made over their pets. But i guess its like they say: You don't know it until you experience it. Right?
