Opps there goes another fish....

Mani finally has his full yellow belt in karate. He was so excited and worried because we were late to the big 20th year anniversary event that included the belt ceremony. But in the end everything turned out fine. He was able to do one demonstration with the class and the belt ceremony. We were late because daddy wanted to change the fish water before we left. True, the poor little fish had not had fresh water since we moved into the house. But while changing the water daddy dropped the tank and broke it. So we had to go to the store and buy another one, which was fine because we wanted to replace the tank with a larger one. Well, we got the tank setup and made it to the event. When we came home and I turned on the light, there on the floor was our poor little shark fish. And to make things worse one of us must have stepped on him when we came in the door. We had read that they could be jumpers but we finally experienced it. The poor little fish has jumped out the tank through the small opening around the filter. We were all kind of sad, but I think our other shark fish was happy because that fish use to chase him around the tank all day and you never once saw him chase him back. Sometimes we would have to knock on the tank just to get the fish to stop chasing him. So we will have to go out and buy a new fish, hopefully this time maybe we will get one that is not so frisky.

UPDATE:

We have a new fish and he was on sale, which is always good. But at this pet store we purchased them from, they informed us that the tank we have is too small because they can grow to 14 inches and that the fish can tend to be territorial. But we got one anyway, but now our old fish is chasing the new fish, lol.
