This has probably been posted before.. but im curious to know!


Mine was dalmatian mollies, my aunt gave 9 to me because hers has babies and she didnt know what else to do with them
 
i dont remember i was 5. and then all the fish died in a amonia spike and the tank broke while we where emptying it so i never got another one until i was fourteen when i got an interest for fish.
 
I think it was a goldfish named bob. We kept him in a ten gallon and he lived for a year until he slammed into the side of the tank.
 
My brother had asked for and gotten a 10 gallon aquarium for his birthday back in the ... early 70s. As the novelty wore off and the fish died off, he lost interest. When he was taking it down I asked if I could have it. He said OK. I set it up in my room with lovely aqua blue gravel, a blue foil background and a bubbling treasure chest. And 6 tiny marbled angels. :omg:
When they got HUGE I took them back to the fish store and gave them back. They were delighted to have them and I hope that they went to a better home than my tiny tank.
My next tank didn't come along 'till 1996.
 
1 betta in a 2.5 gallon with a heater! seems I did better than some of us eh? :D
 
We actually kept the goldfish with tropical fish and it slammed them with its big tail. Then a year later, the goldfish slammed into a wall. Then we bought more fish. And more fish.
And more fish.
