Fish - OPAL
Intake: June 16, 2025
Found: Nauset Beach, Massachusetts — buried in seaweed after a nor’easter.
Condition on arrival: Fair. Cold, buried, and thoroughly fed up.
Temperament: Reserved. Composed. Rather elegant, and aware of it.
Light: Cool or neutral. She does not want direct sun.
Attention: Low. Opal is entirely self-sufficient.
Good with children: Yes.
Good with other residents: Prefers a quiet neighbour or none.
Requirements: A wall away from a window. Somewhere considered.
Hook: “Buried in seaweed after a nor’easter. Not impressed.”
Opal came out of a seaweed bank at Nauset after a nor’easter, cold and buried and visibly unimpressed with the whole business. She has been composed ever since. She’s reserved, she’s elegant, she does not need to be entertained, and she would prefer not to be in a window. One of our longest residents and one of the ones we’re most fond of.
