Wow, those sharks are pretty cool! :)

*sigh* I've never seen a shark before, or at least not in person. :(

I wasn't afraid because they're only nurse sharks; they don't attack humans.  But all sharks have a certain...aura.  They feel ancient, almost prehistoric.  I know that sounds crazy, but they are a very strange animal.

The rope is attached to the black canister of fish food.

And yes, the black and blue fish are really pretty.

Thanks for commenting!
