Next time you’re brushing or flossing your teeth, have a closer look at the packaging. Can you see the words “ADA seal of approval” written on them? ADA stands for the Australian Dental Association, but who are they and what does the seal mean?

Introducing Jimmy!!! Or Fred, depends on who you ask, but this beautiful fish is the latest to join our family here. We think it's a type or Moorish idol. We could be wrong so feel free to correct us if you know better. While we know a fair bit about teeth, fish aren't our specialty. 

Jimmy is joining our ever growing aquarium. The tank is a huge hit with the young, old, and in between and when Dave hasn't been fishing and gets desperate we catch him observing the fish a little too closely.

Our tank is now home to Nemo and Marlin the clown fish, Bubbles the yellow tang, Dory the blue tang and Barney the green thing....  we have Kermit the bristle starfish buried in there somewhere too if your lucky enough to spot him, he tends to hide from us. We think it's because Krista is too loud.
