ITEMS
____________________________________________


ImageImage Lithium Quartz [45FF]
This variety of quartz is found in only one place in Brazil.
It is called Lithium Quartz, because these stones are known
to contain Lithium, but they may also contain other minerals
included in the quartz, other than lithium.

Image Amethyst [40FF]
Purple Amethyst has been highly esteemed throughout the
ages for its stunning beauty and legendary powers to stimulate,
and soothe, the mind and emotions. It is a semi-precious
stone in today’s classifications, but to the ancients it was a
“Gem of Fire,” a Precious Stone worth, at times in history,
as much as a Diamond.


Image Citrine [35FF]
Called The Merchant's Stone for its properties of
increase in the cashbox, sparkling yellow Citrine not
only assists in acquiring wealth, but helps in maintaining it.

Image
Skulls
Medium: 35FF
Small: 30FF
These skulls are so small that they seem unrealistic.
Really good pottery skills, or fairies?

    Large: 25FF

Image Drift Wood [25FF]
Driftwood is wood that has been washed onto a shore or
beach of a sea, lake, or river by the action of winds, tides
or waves. It is a form of marine debris or tidewrack.
In some waterfront areas, driftwood is a major nuisance.
However, the driftwood provides shelter and food for
birds, fish and other aquatic species as it floats in the ocean.

Image Snails [??FF]
Someone found snails in one of the fish tanks holding plants.
We're not sure what to do with them, or even where
they came from, but we'll figure it out soon.

Image Rock Arch [30FF]
These rocks used to be free floating, but the algae seems to have
glued them all together.

TANKS

Bowls
Small: 15FF
Medium: 20FF
Large: 25FF

Bowls may be upgraded in size in the
future so that they are notably different.



Image 2 Gallon Tank [35FF]
A suitable home for guppies, ranchus, and bettas alike.



Image Mason Jar [45FF]
A suitable home for bettas and mini ranchus.
Image Tea Pot [65FF]
We're quickly running out of space at Piscis, so
we're putting bettas in some teapots we found
at yard sales.


Image Lava Lamp [50FF]
I'd say that we had to improvise with tanks, but
we actually put a lot of thought into this one. New
colors for the metal will be available soon.

Image Circo 1970s TV [60FF]
Whoever was in charge of making tanks had a lot of fun with this one.
It even has an overhead light.

SPECIAL
____________________________________________


Mosquito Larvae [50FF]
For some reason the mosquito larvae we've
been feeding the fish has a tendency to turn
some scales on the body red, which makes them
turn into red dragons.

Microworms [100FF]
We've just ordered a special food that
let's the fish go into a sort of
metamorphosis and switch to the
opposite gender. It can only be used on
the fish once, though.

Live Brine Shrimp [40FF]
This is required to breed bettas,
as betta fry cannot eat anything else.
Bloodworms [60FF}
Change your betta's tail type with this
food, but be warned, you don't get
to pick the tail type, it's all random!

Daphnia [20FF]
This boosts the immune systems
for the bettas, and gives you a 50/50
chance of producing 3-5 betta fry when
fed to the fish before breeding,
instead of the usual 1-2.
Each breeding will always give out
3 or more fry with Daphnia.

Earthworms [40FF]
When paired with the bonsai, this food
will triple plant growth. New plants
may grow with the bonsai, too!
