Aquariums own my home...Got Fish?
 

So me and the wife decide we need a new pet...i mean after our cat was ran over in the alley while i worked on my car, i figured we would move on and get something a bit more ..how do you say...easier..

Anyway, we started with a 10 gallon...next week the wife is like, "hey its kinda crowded lets get a bigger one" so im like..uh..ok.. i buy her a 30 gallon for her b-day. 2 days later shes like hey i think we could still get bigger tank...im like ok sure...so to make a long story short we found a great deal on saturday last week. a 50 gallon tank with the stand, pump, lighting fixture and a bunch of other cool ---- for 50 bucks. Had to drive way the ---- out to Corona ( the dirty 909 ) but it was all good.
Took the hatch and stuffed all that ---- in the back with the seats down. good times...

We used to have a 75 gallon tank with 3 Oscar fish. We used to feed them leftovers and mice

Re:Aquariums own my home...Got Fish?
 

I only have one fish, I keep putting other one's in but he keeps eating them ;D

I originally had two but he ate his buddy :-\ I went in to feed him and the only thing left of the other pirannah was its head and spine which he eventually also ate. My one friend had an oscar and though it would kill my fish, so we fought them and he at the oscar in 2 seconds. I feed him a dozen fish every other week, when he was little I fed him one a week and he would kill and eat so much that he couldn't swim for 2 days.

I also fed him a huge ass Sunny that I caught down at a pond, it was the most painful death I ever witnessed cause the thing was so huge and my pirannah ripped him to shreds.


This guy is at least 3 or 4 years old...

he has a evil look in his eyes ;D

Re:Aquariums own my home...Got Fish?
 

lol, Pirannah..

"Hey kids! Grab a hot dog and stick it in the water for him to eat" :P

Re:Aquariums own my home...Got Fish?
 

i remember when i was a kid my sister and I were in the pet store goofing around and we decided to throw a beta (chinese fighting fish) in with the beta that was in a small glass right next to it.

It was funny to watch them fight, then we ditched cause we got parnoid about getting caught by the clerk person ;D

So far nothing has survived the tank yet. Its funny cause I got the 55 gallon tank for free, it used to be used for a lizard or something. :-\


The guy can swim fast as ----. I've never seen such a powerful fish. All the decorations in the tank get knocked over in a week cause he goes crazy and plows through things. (And yes, I do stick my hand in there)
