Presenting, "Gino" with a guest appearance by "Gigetta"!!

2010.11.28

Gino, out on a limb, as it were.

Gino, showing his true colors.

Gino, caught from behind.

Gino, is that ring around the collar I see?

Shy Gigetta. She prefers to blend in.

"Gino" is new in our underwater family. Matter of fact, he joined us just yesterday, along with "Gina" and "Gigetta". Gina absolutely refuses to pose and Gigetta is simply oblivious, but allows herself to be sighted, hence, a sideview of her in the last photo.

They are prawns, and no, not edible - too small. They waddle around the aquarium eating anything they can get their multitude of hands on, especially algae, and can sprint like lightening when irritated.

I'm not going to be making many pictures of the aquarium, but thought I should at least include the new tenants as a show of solidarity in the community.

Remember: Keep swimming: it's far better than sinking!

So is this a salt water tank? or are there prawns in fresh water?
Gino is handsome, the girls are going to fall in love with him. His shot on 2 is perfect, looks like he made himself at home already.
Very nice shots of a beautiful underwater family!!!

yes, 2 is my fav! and good motto... this week we almost felt like we were sinking, but the One Above miraculously picked us up, and we are still in the race!

#2 of Gino looks like a still from an animated cartoon. So, the father, mother &... niece ... immigrated there from... Italy... because they heard of the abundance of work at your place? I think you have the makings of a Disney film!
