Im 14 years old and i started with a 30 gallon begginer back in may. Now i have a 70 gallon with an oscar, sengal bichir, belly crawler pike and a stripe rapheal catfish and a 30 gallon mudskipper tank. My oscar is my baby. He greets me everytime i walk in and he doesnt harm anyone else in the tank. My bichir is starting to let me pet him and took a silverside from my hand yesterday. My pike is starting to recognize me and come up to the glass like my oscar. The best part is i never had to pay a cent for the 70 gallon setu (other than gravel). My uncle had it sitting in a warehouse that he used for african cichlids and turtles about 5 years ago. He gave me a big 200 to 300 dollar fluval filter that works great. These fans that circulate the water for oxygen. Some texas holy rock for decoration. He even gave me lighting and a very nice black stand for it. I keep up with my water changes and my feedings. Whenever i come home from school i sit in my room and just relax to the sound of the running water from my filter and play on my phone. I think its a great form of relaxation and zen. Its a hobby that i just love!
