The Wall

Authorities are tired of all the fish tanks in their living room. The new 75-gallon tank was bought to fix this problem, but what to do about Geoffery and Beetlejuice? They can’t possibly be put in the same tank, right? The authorities wouldn’t be that stupid…right? Right?! But the plan is, in fact, to add M. Geoffrey to the big tank and get rid of the Supermax Prison/Palace.

Authorities, for once, did their research correctly and found a plastic wall to divide the tank. M. Geoffrey gets about thirty-five gallons, and Beetlejuice gets fifty.

Beetlejuice was put in the tank first, and don’t think he didn’t notice that he was being blocked from the whole tank. He pushed on this wall when he tired of pushing on the back wall. Beetlejuice just doesn’t want to live here anymore. After a few weeks, M. Geoffery moved in, and the entertainment began.

First, Beetlejuice became Ghost Fish, turning white and ramming into the wall. When up-close ramming didn’t work, he would go to the other side of the tank to build up speed. Geoffery initially freaked out, but after two days, she realized that Beetlejuice couldn’t get her. She now spends her days taunting Beetlejuice, and he spends half his days attacking the wall.

The algae is a big problem, so authorities went to the store and got a new algae eater. He is almost as big as Beetlejuice. Tiki, welcome to As the Water Swirls.
