Aquarium Advice FINatic
I only have 9 small fish in a 29 gallon (2 in extended QT upstairs). But, as time passes, I'm feeling cramped.
The fish swim normal. None are doing the cramped OCD fixed patterns that you see at the LFSs.
I have some real and some faux plants. The faux I change out every 3 months.
Does anyone else get claustrophobic for their fish? I can't have a bigger tank (Kids would kill me!). The fish and me live in the paneled basement. I hung new scenery posters. ... A garden view door poster, a seascape and a cherry blossom tree on the water's edge.... And, I'm still feeling claustrophobic for them.
Has anyone else had this psychological reaction? Any ideas how to make it better (besides a huge tank)?
BTW. I was ok until I visited my rich uncle's mansion where he had huge underground windows with beautiful vistas and real sunlight thru the shaft with little faux animals and stuff, and a very believable faux skylight, too. Now, my fish look cramped.
I realize it's transference. But, anyone ever feel like this?
