My betta died last week :( But I still have a ten gallon tank with a few mollies, a guppy, and some Botia Sidthumunki (no common name) in it. I'll try to get some pictures up!

Oh my, yes we have fish! My hubby has two large tanks. He began with a 10 gallon tank about 30 years ago and we have gone through everything from neons to oscars and everything in between! For the past several years he has changed over to just African Cichlids. They like caves in nature and very alkaline water. He has quite the rock formations in his tanks to make them feel "at home."

No, we don't have fish. I wouldn't try with three cats in the house. I would worry about the tank breaking & all the fish dying.

(I have just read my post. Gosh, I have a depressing attitude towards fish ownership)

I've had fish for a long time now. When I was about 5 or 6, we bought a tank for my room. I was the only one that had fish:) Then, we moved, and we got a big tank in our kitchen now. I used to have a betta, but it died so quickly:( The person at the store said it was probably sick.

No, we don't have fish...we have an aquarium of fish. ;)

We have 6 fish tanks (including the bettas) and two bowls. One for my betta Ocean, and one for my sister's betta, Squirt. I have a divided 10 gallon tank with my bettas (excluding Ocean); Mooka, Bubbles, Popcorn, and Aqua. Then we have an 110 gallon freshwater tank, two 50 gallon salt water tanks, a 20 gallon freshwater tank (also mine), and a 20 gallon salt water tank (which is my sister's). I've posted pics before of them all, but if not check out here (http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4290622487). :)

Hi Sarah! We don't have any fish. I will when I finally get my garden pond built though (whenever that is). :)

We have 11. When we got them I had NO idea they could have so much personality! We have 5 oscar fish, 1 betta,1 Green Terror,2 algea eaters(don`t know what they`re called),and two Catfish.

One of our Oscar fish,Oscar,has to have his tank to where he can see down the hall,if he doesn`t he sorta gets...depressed i guess and just sits at the bottom of the tank. I swear he is just like a dog,when someone comes to his tank he starts to wiggle and swim everywhere.


Here are pics of the tanks:

Kingrattus that picture of Mango is amazing! :eek: And I love Oscar's colors.

We have a pond in our backyard. I think it has about ten goldfish in it, not really sure though, because they breed every spring, if conditions are good. Sometimes they get got by a cat though, too. So I'm never exactly sure how many there are at one time.
This is my favourite girl - Gemma. She's been there since the beginning:

They're basically all orange comets, except for one, the biggest. He's pure black and about eight centimetres long. We affectionately refer to him as 'Big Dadda'. ;)

Gemma isn't a comets, She's a Morre (sp). That breed of goldfish is my fav :)

Mm, I was just saying that most of them are comets. Sorry about the misunderstanding! ;) I didn't know exactly what type Gemma is though, thanks for that. She's nothing fancy...I just love her bulgy eyes.

Shes a Mix between a Morre & some other fish. She looks just like a Morre except for her colour, Morres r jet black (not dark green)

What do you mean? Gemma's not dark green either.
Big Dadda is a Moor, I'm fairly sure. He was sold to us as one, anyway. Gemma was supposed to be a 'telescope', but I don't know if that's an official name or just fish slang.

=========
I was explaining what colour a morre was. Some morres look green & thats cause their mixed. All mixed fish have names. some r quite odd too hehehe
