Well the seam on my 125g tank popped about a year ago now and I lost all of my goldfish. After a couple of decades of keeping fish I took the last year off.
But now my new position has given me a nice pretty bonus check and it's burning a whole in my pocket. My wife has already spent her portion by having the exterior of the house painted (It's not pink anymore yeah!!!!). I still have dog called Marshmellow though.... I really don't feel that manly when I take a fluffy little dog for a walk.
Now I have my portion of bonus to spend. What better way to blow it than to get back into keeping a few fish.
Unfortunately I'm not going to do goldfish again because I lost too many old friends last year. So I was thinking of doing a planted tank with little short lived fish.
Here's what i'm looking for:
Nothing over 3-4" in length.
Colorful mix that will not destroy plants.
Must get along with a bushynose pleco (my boys love them).
NO MOLLIES, Platy's, etc.. - I just don't like them,, guppies are okay...
Nothing tricky to feed, I travel 20-25 times per year and my wife will sprinkle fish food in if she must (at great personal sacrifice).
Any idea's for what to get. My bank account needs some damage done to it.
