Apparently my guys don't learn. After the fish incident of last week, I suggested that the fish food be put in the bathroom out of reach of Glenn. But Bob felt it would be safe in a drawer in Glenn's room. Today, Bob caught Glenn just in time before putting the fish food in the fish tank. But what he didn't notice is that the algae wafers for our former algae eaters had already been dumped in the fish tank. When I woke up from my nap, I brought Glenn to his room to change his diaper and noticed the algae wafers on the bottom of the tank, and they were disintegrating. So, I scooped out as much as I could and rinsed the rocks. One fish has died so far (his name was Pooh because he was orange). Bob's going to go get an algae eater fish after he's done working to hopefully eat up the rest of the algae. The fish food is now on a high shelf in Glenn's closet- there's no way he can get it. Hopefully he doesn't resort to putting something else in the tank since he can't get the food. He just wants to help and doesn't understand that he is making the fish sick. But if all these fish die, I don't think we'll be putting the tank in his room until he's older.
