WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST FISH?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
my mom has always had fishtanks in her class as far as i can remember.
one day she brought one home.
we went to the store got some neon tetras some rosy barbs giant danios one blue gourami and a small pleco. surprisingly they lived for a good long while
 
Tiger barbs.......2 years ago. All but one lasted 5 days. 1 lived a long time. I thought I had to change all the water so I put the TB in a bowl and he jumped out and died........OH what i've learned.
 
my first fish was a german ram..but she didn*t last too long =/
 
I think it was a Zebra danio, the short fin type. This was back in the mid ninteen sixties. I was amazed by the stripe pattern. My dad had a ten gallon tank and each of my siblings was allowed to pick out a single fish for that community setup. The Zebra Kinda reminded me of the pin stripe suites of the mid 20th century.
 
I got a five gallon tank and goldfish when I was 12. I used to do 100% water changes! LOL
