The first night we transferred the minnows into their new fishbowl.

You'll notice the bowl is actually a bowl. Many traditional fish bowls are round with flat sides at the front and back, and a narrow opening at the top.

This wide opening at the top is much healthier for the fish.

The minnows survived for a good few days in this bug catcher.

Happy fish. Meet Silvy and Fisher.

We headed out to catch frogs on Mother's Day but came home with two minnows.

See. All prepared to catch frogs (this series of books are fantastic btw – see link at bottom).
