Welcome to your new home ......

We have an addition in our home. I know you all would like me to tell you that it is a kid but alas it is not. We have a new addition to our pets. On Saturday we bought a new aquarium from a private seller and with it acquired a picasamus. I am sure I don't have this spelled right but oh well. He is a bottom feeding sucker. His name is Mr. Sucker! Brent named him and believe me he is a sucker. The turtles have already initiated him into their group. Tayla steps on him constantly matter a fact he got a foot in the face the other day. Every so often Tayla nips his tail just to show him who's boss. I think he has started staying in the rock house just so Tayla will leave his poor tail alone. As you can tell, Tayla is a bit of a bully. She reminds me of that Nursery rhyme Jack Sprat could eat no fat his wife could eat no lean so between the two of them they licked the platter clean. I swear Tayla is the Dominant personality and Tommy is the submissive one. I am pretty sure that Mr. Sucker so if not already will become submissive to Tayla's every whim. They are pretty funny to watch. Tommy follows Tayla around the tank like a little kid that is starving for attention and Tayla gives him just enough to make him go crazy for more. She pushes him around and eats a majority of the food. We'll have to wait and see what role our new addition plays.

It's Brent in fish form.

No way. If Brent were a fish he would one be the biggest baddest fish around and he would be the prettiest and brightest!
