No art to see the mind's construction...


According to Shakespeare you can't judge on appearances. The trouble with Stevie G, our Ghost Shrimp, is that's he's see-through. As we gathered round the tank this morning wondering why there were only two of Max's little fishes swimming about we all took a good long look at this little fellow, sitting proudly on top of the Sphinx. Could he really be a killer? Did he really take out all the guppies - Rainbow, Pinky I and Pinky II? He doesn't look like a murderer. He doesn't look like much at all. Ghost Shrimp are pretty hard to read, to be honest.

Happily the missing little guy - Fuzznoodles II, Gerald or Bob, not sure which - turned up hours later safe and sound. Sighs of relief all round.
