Halloween In My Fish Tank

So what does a not-so-wicked Witch do in her spare time, when she's not conjuring up potions and putting hexes on people? She plays mindless games on Facebook, that's what! I loathe to admit it, because in general I am NOT a video playing kind of girl. Outside of I-Spy games on the computer, I typically do not waste my time watching TV or playing video games. BUT...I found a game on Facebook that I couldn't resist called Fish World.

My niece suckered me in with the promise that I could have a Hallowe'en Fish Tank. She knows me so well...I accepted the bait and I was hooked. I have now worked diligently for the last week or two, raising and selling fish until I could completely bling out my fish tank with a Halloween theme. I had to earn enough money to get the Full Moon Haunted House background. Then of course I had to have the Witch, the Ghost, the Skeleton, the Cauldron, the Tombstone, the Black Cat and the Spiderweb. I added in a Spooky Tree and some Fall leaves and it is now complete.

But what makes the theme even more fun, is that you can buy Hallowe'en Fish to go in it. Yep...there are Pumpkin Fish, Skeleton Fish, Mummy Fish and a scary looking Purple Sawtooth Fish! Now how stinkin' cool is that! If you click on my photo to enlarge it, you can get a glimpse of those fish in different areas. Some are still babies and some are larger. But if any of you do the Facebook thing....consider gettting yourself a tank in Fish World and decking it out for the upco
ming holiday.

My family "suckered" me to just being on FB...I was then suckered in to some farm type game...I don't understand how to do it...I know you have to buy seeds and trade different aspects of the farm...but I'm still clueless...LOL!

Enjoy your fish tank!

Huh - I avoid all the Facebook games, but my wife loves them. This one, however, might be right up my alley!

Well I only do 2 games on FB, one is of course Fish World which I mentioned and the other is called Farm Town. They both operate in the same fashion. You buy and sell crops or fish accordingly. The trick is saving everything you make in the beginning and putting back into more crops and fish. Pretty soon you have enough to start adding in things to your farm or tank, while still having enough $ left to buy more crops and fish to keep expanding. I find it rather addicting, but also it is somewhat mind numbing and therefore therapeutic as well. I have all pumpkins on my farm, which is of course named Pumpkin Hollow. They are fun, at least for awhile until you grow bored. Needless to say....I am easily entertained! :o) Hope everyone is having a great Sunday!
