I have no more fish.

Now I see this forum and I would be embarrassed to even start a tank again.

I had saltwater tanks for a while but I didn't have as much fun as with the freshwater. The fish I have respond like puppy dogs when they see you and have a lot more personality than Marine fish... The Marine tanks look nice, but seeing a barracuda or a Gar rip the head off a goldfish sure is fun... LOL

I like birds, now there is personality! I'm kind of burnt out on them right now because my mom got into raising birds and her house is so loud now... Thats all she ever talks about... LOL

I would love to have a parrotlet.

But the fish... well, um.... that was the end of the fish. :/

LOL they should have seen that one coming!
