Several years back, my wet pet died of old age. I spent a long time not enjoying my own favorite hobby, but today that changes...BECAUSE...I ordered my dream fish (Jaguar cichlids). I am so excited to receive my grow-outs!! They are going into an established 125gallon aquarium with plenty of gut-loaded fish to feast on!!!
I plan to only keep one (whichever one I like the most). They are actually arriving Today!!! I will post pictures when they have acclimated!! I had to tell you guys...I am So excited....
The real exciting thing about these new fish, though, is that they are helping me to move on from losing Lotus (fish in avatar), and I will enjoy the hobby again. I really struggled for months (really, years) just even doing basic maintenance on my tank. I've been told that ,"It's just a fish!." I loved my wet pet (more than most people), and it was like losing a dog for me. I guess what applies to dogs can be applied to fish. The best remedy for losing a prized wet pet is to get a new one.
