How long have you been keeping fish? Why did you start? What keeps you going with it? Just curious what everyones experience with their tanks has been. I know for myself I've had a tank in the house from when I was a little kid 5-6. My dad kept piranhas in a 180gal. Won't speak of the lessons I learned fast with those fish. Lol! As an adult it was my eldest daughter that got me back into the hobby. I bought her a 35gal for Christmas one year. That was 15 years ago now. My son has recently gotten me back into it once again.( He's 8 ) So now we have a 35 in storage a 65 and a 46gal up and running. I'm housebound with nerve damage to my brain and I find the fish to be tranquil to watch. I get lost in their colors and find their movements almost hypnotic. I guess in a way I feel like I can relate to them being stuck in a place. I just hope to give them all they need to be happy little fishies. I think I also enjoy the learning that comes with this particular hobby. There are so many species and endless possibilities for the communities you can create. Like my own little Atlantis LOL! How about you guys? Or is it too personal a question for a forum? I've never been in one so I'm not quite sure whats right or not?
