My Accidental Wakin...
« on: May 31, 2007, 03:57:29 PM »
In another post I mentioned I had been looking unsuccessfully for Wakins, but then found one by accident in a tank with Sarasota Comets at the local Petsmart. 
He isn't very big, only about 3", so I put him in my 30 gallon tank in the basement, rather than chance putting him in the pond.  I have a funny habit of always examining the "death sentence tank" (feeder fish) at the pet store, and saving any adorables I find in there. The 30 gallon tank in the basement is where I keep these little guys.   ;)

Anyways, here he is!  Isn't he adorable?  ;)
