Re: [GSAS-Member] shubunkin rescue - success!

Betty,

I can't help out with the netting. But I can absolutely help out with  
housing two if they are available. We have an outdoor, heated,  
protected goldfish pot. One of the residents used to be an indoor PET  
that we rescued from the orphan tank at The Fish Store. His name is  
Spud... and he looks like a potato. Spud likes company.
