Hungry,Hungry Flounder!

Today at the touch tank we fed the hungry flounder and minnows. What a lively bunch!If you've never seen a flounder eat, this video's just for you.

It was quite apparent that the fish were hungry when the flounder started to eat the sea lettuce and the minnows started to eat the periwinkles!
Hopefully that should hold them over 'till tomorrow when we'll be feeding everyone in the tank raw cod. Yum!
It's supposed to be a beautiful day tomorrow so come on down, you never know what will happen in the tank!!!
