haha, there were still plenty of clams left today. mind you most of them are quite small (3'' long i'd say)

chapter 2:i woke up again exited as ever, and ready to work. when i got to the store colby got me to feed the fish right away! sadly our new 4 purple tangs and 2 sohal tangs wouldn't eat much. after that i got to take a sponge and scrub off all the algae in the tanks.it was hard to do the guppy tank because they kept tickling my arm so i would jiggle around in my laughter. i almost had water in my armpits!
then ofcourse i realized in my vigorous scrubbing, i had spilled water down the front of the tanks and ruined my squeegee and buffing job i had done the day before. D'oh! well i got out the squeegee and buffing supplies and got back to work. while i was doing that Colbies custom man arrived to finish up a tank and start a new one. it was nice to meet the man who did such a good job on my sump. then when i was done that, colby had an idea and whipped out the mysis with garlic and some added nutrients.
We fed about 10 whole cubes to the tangs, and the tangs loved it!
thank god they were eating i thought. the garlic was because they have a bit of ick on them.
it was hilarious watching the sohal tang eat. He would open his mouth as wide as he could, and then rocket right through the mysis cloud, over and over again.
Sadly by the time i was done feeding the tangs my dad was there and i had to leave.
i was very pleased when colby asked if i would come back in easter and maybe on some weekends. ofcourse i said i would, then said my goodbyes, and i was off to go back home.



HAPPY TIMES!
