    Wow, that's incredible! He must like his food! :)

    Both my dogs were runts of their litters. There's just something about little animals! Maybe I'm drawn to small things because I'm so short, haha.

    Okay, I'm going to pick him up in a few minutes!! yay!!

    He's floating right now. He seems seriously stressed out! I don't know if I'll be able to get a picture of him after he goes in the tank. He'll probably go hide. I took some pics of him floating in the bag, though. If any of them turn out I'll post!

    Okay here he is! His name is Spike. The pictures aren't the greatest, because I'm horrible at taking pictures, but you can get the idea! And yes, plastic plant, lol.

    Also, an updated picture of my tank.

    Thanks!! I keep trying to take the plants out when I do water changes, but there are always starfish on them, and I would feel really bad if I took the plants out and killed some starfish. So they are still there! lol.

    Spike is so small and just perches on the rocks, so none of my other fish even noticed him when I put him in. They keep swimming by him and don't notice! It's funny. Whenever I've added a new fish the clown and damsel are mean, but they don't even see this guy.

    I'm hoping he'll eat okay. He seems pretty freaked out, and they naturally perch and hide quite a bit...we'll see how it goes!
