Hi everyone! This is my story:
I humbly started out asking for a small tank for christmas 3 years ago when i was elleven, almost twelve. My parents reluctantly tried to find a quiet one with no gurgeling sounds. They found the BiOrb, by ReefOne. It was 8 gallons. I loved it. Then, as most inexperienced fishkeepers do, I put two fish together that couldn't mix. Then it all began. I got a rosy red feeder my friend bought for me and he tried to eat my neon tetra. So I put the feeder in a bottle. Then i got him a 1.5gallon hex tank.Then I won two goldfish from the fair. They started in a fishbowl, but not long after got their own 2.5 gallon tank. Then I had another fish that didnt get along with any of them. He got a makeshift tank from a tupperware containter. (less than a gallon). Then I got my GSP (Puff). He tried to eat my beloved ghost shrimp
so he got his own fishbowl. Then about a 7 gallon tupperware container. Then finally a 10 gallon where he spent about 7 months. I moved my other fish into a 14 gallon. So I had an 8 gallon BiOrb, a 10 gallon for a GSP, and a 14 gallon tank for everything else. I asked for a 20 gallon planted tank for Christmas the next year. I got it for my birthday (Feb. 17th). The plants were a bust (my tank looked like dense fog from too much CO2) and all the plants died with luckily no fish yet. I moved my 10 gal to under the 20 gal on the metal stand. Turned it to saltwater (slowly). Then got puff a friend (walter) who was a Black Saddled Toby. Then i got a 20L for my two puffers but ended up getting 3 GSPs from wal-mart (oops!). two died within a week and the other tragically died being sucked into the pump
. Then i moved Puff and Walter into it. Puff lived the rest of his life in there and succumed to a parasite at age 2 being only 1 inch long (i cried... he was my best bud). At the end of Puff's life i got him a 55 gallon which he spent his last hour in. Now Walter is living happily in that while the 10 gallon has one dwarf puffer in it and i got another 10 gallon for my "sex addicts" guppies as my mom calls them. I plan to turn my 55 into a reef tank and my 20L into a nano reef. Now i am asking for a 210 gallon for Christmas this year (age 14) for a colony of Frontosa. And i hope to get a 150 gallon reef tank later on. That is my story.
