I caught some fish out of a hot spring in Nevada when I was 7.Took then home and found a old 10gl in my dad garage.Well months later they breed for me and I have been hooked every since.I have never went without a tank since.That was 37yrs ago.I wish I could remember what they looked like.
Oscar, pacu, kissing gourami, Tiger barb in a 55 gallon. I think i got it whn I was 6 or 7 and i kept it until I was 12 or 13 and surprisingly there was never any trouble with fighting. We gave them away to some of my moms friends and to my knowledge there still alive.
