Lydia Snickers at the Otters Preposterous Proposition to Trade a Mechanical Otter for her First Born

If I were a frivolous and eccentric billionaire, I would have whole walls in my house that were just aquariums. For now I will settle with a more reasonable ten gallon tank. This tank was a very sweet present for me from David. I've been wanting a fish aquarium for a long time and he hasn't been too keen on the idea. Now that we have one, he has been having a great time with it. We started off with six fish, three False Harlequins and three Cardinal Tetras. All but one Cardinal Tetra has died. His has been dubbed 'The Little Trouper.' Once we get more fish, I'm not going to officially name them until we have had them longer than a month. I do, however, have names picked out for when this time comes. Here they are: Poindexter, Pierre, Frank Jr. ( I had a really awesome goldfish named Frank who grew very large and lived quite a while), Merryfins (In the book 'Hard Times' there is a dog named Merrylegs. I think that is the cutest name ever, so my fish gets the fish version of that name), Templeton (I've always been fond of this name for a pet) Winnifred and Willfred. I need more girl names, but so far, this is what I have chosen. The plan for the tank is to have five Cardinal Tetras, Three Cory Catfish and one Blue Dwarf Gourami.
