What was your first fish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I had guppies in my house when I was a real little kid. My first fish, bought with my own money and kept at my own place, was a couple of firemouths. I quickly bought an Oscar and a Jack Dempsey, with Red Belly piranhas and an alligator gar following about a year later.
 
I won a Goldfish off the Huck a duck from the fair , when i was about 6 had it for around 2/ 3 years in a tiny Hex tank with no filter or light but i think it had a tiny air thing ( sorry cannt think of the name ) in it .
 
300-400 one cm baby snakeheads by elder brother thought were small fish who would keep out outdoor pond clean of insects and their larve/eggs....they were soo beautiful,golden and black...
within 2-3 months there were just two left and they grew BIG!!...so he put them into the water well at our farmhouse...havent seen them since :(

My first fish were tiny bullhead catfish I caught by scooping up leaves from the Poca River where I lived. they were about 1/4" long and I kept them in the old square one gallon milk jugs with a sprig of anachris.
