What kind of fish should I get?

LOL

I justified getting them because the gene that makes them fluoresce came from corals.
I found them fitting...

So Heather, did you deicide or get any fish yet?

 

[Heather]

I really think the moss tank needs one of those little submarines hooked to an air pump. Or maybe the bubbling treasure chest. That would be cool. See you around the club.

Dave, you're funny!
Do keep in mind - fish for me are an entertainment device for my cat more than anything so glowfish are about her more than me! oke:

I'm still leaning towards the glowfish and the fancy guppies.
Haven't done anything yet and likely won't until the end of September. I kinda have a lot going on in August and September. Maybe it will be a birthday present to myself.

You guys are great - this is such a wonderful forum - I knew you'd have the answer (ad nauseum! LOL!)

I can't believe adults really buy those glow-fish! oke:

See, proves my point! :evil:

I'm a fan of tiger barbs myself, and I think you and your cat might be too! If you get a small school of them (I've even mixed the red, green, and albinos in the past w/o problems) they'll chase eachother around incessantly, and probably stare down the cat if it's peeking into the tank. They don't get along w/ All kinds of fish though if you mix them w/ other kinds, so just keep that in mind and don't put something w/ extra frilly fins in w/ them...they may not 'play' nicely

Seeing that there is competition for a fish, why not a pirhanna? Would keep the cat out of the tank?:evil::evil::evil:

actually that seems like a perfectly acceptable rationalization to me!

Oh, you're just talking to yourself now?

Anyone who ever met me would agree that I'm just a very responsible big child! (But Glow fish!??!)
