Red

is a very stunning color. Especially against green and black and brown.

I got a big floating plant (giant duckweed?) and two Red Cherry shrimp for that little nano tank today from the Aquarium Store. One of the shrimps is carrying a bunch of eggs. If they breed like most websites say they do, the little babies will help feed the fish I ordered (well, I don't plan on raising any baby shrimp anyway).

The fish I picked to go in this tank is a Scarlet Badis (Dario dario) and it isn't supposed to grow even an inch long. The only thing I'm a little worried about is how everything says they won't accept prepared foods; they have to be given live food. I got some frozen Cyclop-eeze to use as the fish's staple once I get him. I just hope he likes it. I won't know until I get him after next Wednesday.

Oh, and happy new year.  :)
