Aquatic Gift Registry


Since Isabella loves fish soooo much we would like to give her an aquarium for her birthday! I must confess to being a little naive and thinking you just put some water into a tank and throw in some fish. Luckily we know Jeff and he's helping us create an aquatic paradise for Isabella to enjoy for years to come!


Here are the "fish things" that can be bought for the tank. All of these things can be bought at Big Al's .
Plants: various prices
Food: 8 Veggie Flake $17.99
Tetra Tropical Granuales $22.99
Algae Waffers $22.99
Lettuce Clip $2.99
Bio Support $6.99(sm) to $44.99(xl)
Water Support $12.99
Net
Thermometer

The fish tank is up! There's water in it! As far as putting fish into the tank we wont know if that is a real possibility until Saturday the 10th. As far as putting fish into it, it's a pretty delicate process and the fish would have to bought the day of. After some discussion and the reality of this endeavour sinking in, I've come to a conclusion. The best way to get some fish into the tank will be for Nick and Jeff to go pick them up and if you were wanting to bring fish just put the money in a card and it will be spent on the fish. (Does that make sense?). If there's more money given than the fish cost, it will be held until we add more fish or the fish need food. It will only be spent on the fish.

Jeff just finished showing us some fish choices to help us figure out what we want to populate Belle's tank with. I'll post some pictures of the fish we've chosen to go with as soon as I can find them.

Remember, no gift is required. The best present you can give is some of yourself! Instead of opening presents we'll be unveiling the tank. So if you do bring something not fish related, please don't be offended when we don't take the time to open it.

Thanks so much for helping us give Isabella something she'll treasure forever!
