Fish Food

As you can probably tell, Rhen is a little mischievous one. She has recently been opening and closing the fish tank lid just for fun. She helps Josh feed the fish every morning but never gets to do it by herself. Well, one day she decided that they needed more than just the normal fish food - they needed a Treat! Josh and I were sitting across the room and telling Rhen to get away from the fish tank. It wasn't until 5 or 10 minutes later when Rhen kept saying "cookie" over and over that we realized she had actually fed the fish a cookie.

By the time we discovered it, the cookie was waterlogged and had started to crumble all over the place. Josh got it out with the net, but there were cookie chunks floating everywhere by then. The fish were going crazy with their new treat, but I think they all got sick. Their tummies were all bloated and we seriously thought they were not going to make it. But the next morning we woke up to our 6 fish still alive and kicking.

Rhen was very proud of herself and the fact that she got to "feed the fish."

Since then we have started to tape the top lid closed. No more treats for these fish!
