    Finally, two fish that made me smile...because they're such clowns and well, one of them is an awesome possum.

    Class Clown
    [​IMG]


    NOTE: This Poor Clown Lost One of its Fins (like Nemo...kinda!), But He Swims PERFECTLY Well...And Eats Healthily Too! He probably lost one his fin from fighting a Barracuda. He came out victorious, of course.


    Here's the Awesome Possum
    [​IMG]

    Note how the ENTIRE school fears the awesome possum. But, he's quite a charmer believe it or not.

The only one that actually is good, taxes like there's no tmrw haha. Be sure to snap some more pics once they get all comfy and start roaming around :)

    I'm pretty sure your unnamed "japanese fish" is called a lizard fish, if I'm not mistaken.. I could be wrong though, so don't quote me on that haha.
