who got u into the fish hobby

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My Dad got me into it. He used to keep bettas and black mollies. nothing big, and thought it was a good hobby to get into with his son. But now whenhe comes to visit me and sees my big tank packed with big fish, he says I am insane. LOL! Been keeping fish since I was 4.

Thanks Dad for getting me into this awesome hobby. :thumbsup:
 
my dad got me into it. when i was younger my dad would take my bro and me to lps every weekend looking for fish. we would have to sneak all our purchases in because my mom wasnt as fond of the hobby as we all were. never the less i owe it all to him for getting me started.
 
My mom got me into the hobby when I was seven she purchased a used 20 gallon from a yard sale. We kept some Angelfish, Gourami and Kuhli Loach in it.
 
my dad. He had some mollys they had fry . When they were gone we had Angels, gouramis and an assortment of fish thru the years. Had a cool rope fish with a butterfly fish they ate tankmates then the rope fish proceeded to eat the butterfly fish. Got back into it after my son had a cichlid tank. LOve those OScars! :)
 
Well my grandpa had a enormous fish tank and since I saw it I fall in love with it.
Since I was 5 or 6 me and my friends used to go down the river tryin to catch Jewls ciclids, and there were lakes all over were I come from and we used to catch Fancy Guppies
 
my uncle and my love for animals!!!;)
 
my dad had a 55gal tropical when i was a kid and i have always been into fish. had at least a small tank off and on since i was 18. then my father-in-law gave me his 55gal when he got his 180gal. he got me into african cichlids. :hearts: now i want a bigger tank so i can get bigger cichlids but i have to get into a house first. :(
 
how big was the rope fish, susie? its surprising to me that a ropefish could fit a butterfly fish into its mouth...
