The Age of Aquarium

We have a water habitat. Our studio is full of life these days. 2 people, one dog, 2 plants, 6 snails, and two frogs. So, after spending $101 on this new, fancy aquarium, our poor fish died. We didn't name it. We knew it wasn't doing well. We should have named it.
Well, the snails thrived throughout the drama. 3 fish bowls, 2 dead fish, and a lot of new water. They even had a baby! We have a baby snail. His name is Snail Baby. The frogs' names are Hugz and Kissez. There was a death two days ago. Things have seemed pretty eery lately. A snail body was seen ripped apart and a few inches away we spotted an empty shell. We looked to the other side of the aquarium and saw three of the snails had congregated to discuss some sort of plan while the frogs waded in the plant leaves at the water surface. I don't know what's going on. I think everything may be settled now. I'm out of town so I'll find out more when I return.
Here are photos:


A whole new world.


Monster snail is in the center at the surface. Snail Baby is a speck directly to the right.


Monster snail... He's larger than life. I think he may have eaten the other snail. Either that or he's pregnant. She. He/She. I think snails can turn into whatever is necessary.
