Around all the Amazing Race stuff, we also got a fish tank - make that two. D got one for the media room, and Luke and Macy chipped in some of their money to get one for their bathroom. We were all gung ho to get them up and running (we who know NOTHING about fish!) until we found out that we had to fill them with water and let them sit for at least two days before we can add any fish. We got very conflicting information on this though. We went to PetSmart this morning, and the first girl told us we didn't have to wait at all. To get our fish, go home, fill the tank, float the fishes' bag in the water for about 15 minutes, and then pour the fish in. So, we go and finish running our errands, then go back to PetSmart to get our fish when we get new helpers. They tell us we have to wait at least 24-48 hours before adding fish... so we have to go back again in a couple of days, and then we can only add 2 fish at a time. 2 fish every 3 days. Crazy. Lucky for us, our tanks are small, so we only want 3-4 fish anyway, but still. Kind of burst our bubbles a bit. So here's Reed, staring into R2-D2, trying to figure out where the fish are. It was really bugging one of the cats too. She sat in front of the one in the bathroom for a while looking for the fish.
