New Friends

Today I visited Texas Tropical and Marine off of Vance Jackson and 410, and was a little disappointed. While they had a wide variety of fish, they didn't have hardly any selection of plants, and the cleanliness left something to be desired. So on to River City Exotics, the place I found accidently off of Culebra.

Unfortunately, they only had two blue dwarf gouramis, but after some initial hesitation, I went ahead and got the two of them. They kep to themselves initially, but I'm hoping once they figure out they've got lots of fun places to hide, they'll be a little more brave hanging out in the open.

I also picked up a glass algae scrubber, so between cleaning off the algae on the front glass and using glass cleaner on the other side, I have a little better view of my underwater friends. While at Petsmart picking up the scrubber, I saw a cory julii, which I really miss. Unfortunately, I found out they won't school with the albino cories, and I don't think I really have enough room in the 30-gallon to add another school of fish.
