On my desk, there's a fish aquarium...
I had my flame out on the desk, getting ready to feed him.. and apparently, he had the same idea. But he's obviously not picky... didn't need none of them guppies. I'll catch my own fish
He actually follows the fish with his eyes, and opens his mouth when one gets close like he's ready to grab it.... come on, a liiiiiittle closer...
he looks so intent on getting that darn fish.

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Re: Yum, tetras!
Yeah, this guy puts on the "cottonmouth display" When you lift his hide, will chase your thumb, if it smells like food, all the around the cage multiple times, and is just a really funny snake. (not active in cage like my anery, though) He has the hardest strike too... If he was bigger he'd be kinda scary..
It's hard to be intimidating when you're 6 inches long.

That is just like Squirt. It makes me miss her a lot, too. She was one of the funniest snakes I've had.
