Your first tank...?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i remember the first tank my family had, it was prob a 55 gal, don't remember what we had in it just that my mom had some small frogs that me and my brother used to wake up in the middle of the night to take em out to "play"......until we forgot to put em back one night....next morning.....CRISPY FROGS
 
my dad had a 40gal with a bunch of lionhead gold fish witch bred for him untill we filled are hot tub with gold fish when i was 5 or 6...as a kid i never new i was into them till he took the tank down...the next chance i got i bought a 10gal with 3 silver arrowos at 3in but only because at the time i had money and didnt no how to save i up graded bout 2 weeks later
 
oh also i know of a guy that has a 35-55 gallon tank that he has a huge goldfish in for many years.......but heres the kicker.

no filtration.
no air stone or any air at all.
no fish food. (says he gives him chips and crackers)
nothing in the tank besides fish, water, and a couple Cd's and other random objects that happen to fall in.
no cleaning or water changes for probably for 6 months I'm guessing

their is no visual indications to show any signs of malnutrition!?!?

WTF?
 
When i was 7 I had a pacu, an Oscar, a small kissing gourami, a clown loach that stayed at the top a green knife fish, a ghost knife, and some type of bullhead in a 55 gallon. We got the bullhead from a lake when only the pacu and oscar were left. We had the green knife and it didnt do anything, than a ghost knife taught it tricks it was cool
