Amelia's Menagerie

i got another pet. finally, my saltwater tank it stocked it has a shrimp, 5 hermit crabs, 5 snails, 5 corals, and one very special clownfish. his name is pasha. he's definitely a male, because all clownfish are until one become dominant and changes sexes to become a female. he will be getting a friend at some point, who will be named kashi. pasha and kashi, iconic duo. so yes, i did write a song for my newest pet. but you guys can't hear it right now (sorry) instead, i shall leave you with some glorious pictures and links to my newest videos. a quick clip of this dear soul my pet room tour
