Aquarium Advice Activist
So we finally got some fish for our 29g tank. The kids wanted glo-fish. Not my first choice, but I want them to be part of this "aquarium experience" and so I let them choose... we got 6. They are very fast, active little swimmers. I've had a lot of fun watching them (and here's why):
The tank has a pair of Whisper 10-30i filters on it and one of the fish (the largest orange one) has figured out how to swim up the cascade of water and get into the filter (in the open area in front of the bio sponge). Once there he will swim up and down, occasionally allowing himself to be pushed out by the water flow, then he swims back up. I've even caught him surfing on the lip of the filter in the water current. My 7 year old thinks its the coolest thing to watch!
We have now named this fish "The Extreme!"
