Got my first two fish yesterday and got them into quarantine. I got a great deal on a snowflake clown. The lfs had ordered a bunch and there was one sad little clown left over that no one had picked so they marked him down to $34.99. And then I also got a purple firefish that the store had ordered for me.

Introducing...Oscar and the yet to be named snowflake clown. I'm kinda thinking of Jon Snowflake for my favorite show but I'm not sure yet.

I gave them their first feeding this morning and even though Oscar is the shy one of the two he ate like a little piggie while the clown didn't touch a bite. He's not skinny and he had been at the shop at least a month so he's obviously been eating so I'm thinking he just needs more time to settle in.
