Marlin the Second

Despite the snow yesterday (five freaking inches of it) I stopped twice on my way home to look at fish.  Thankfully the aquarium stores are right on my route home, so it was like taking a break from sliding around on the road.  At the first store I picked up a Six Spot Sleeper Goby that Amy and I had been looking at over the weekend. He's very cool looking, and serves a great tank purpose: he gulps up a mouthful of sand, strains the food out, and then spits the sand out his gills, keeping things nice and clean.

They're swimming around and having fun! Firefish and little Goby and still hiding though.
