Her father put a tomato on the floor and a hamburger. Which do you think the dog ate?

Ate the tomato and gave the burger to the cat?

Well all is well so far ...still two shrimp in the tank (no WONDER the cocktail sauce was unused)! My husband insisted he was in there because he "picked the braviest shrimp in the store" and he just found him hiding under a rock. The picture is of right after we put him in the tank and he got a few antennae ripped off! Now worries amy

so what does your hawkfish have in his mouth?

i am confused....

it's normal for me though

I know...it was confusing. If you go back to the beginning, you will see that I said the hawkfish had gotten just a little bit of the shrimps front end, 2 of his antennae. But we thought for sure he had gotten the whole shrimp!
