Meet Reishi! She's a ''lavender'' Kirin fantail. Her scales look like someone glued sequin into her. She got to move in early do to Cherry's move into the disabled blubs tank! Such a pretty and sweet baby. She's been very adventurous so fair, often getting in over her head and having to abort her mission in the most comical way possible. I love her dearly 💜
