Yea! Fish for kids! We first got our fish for our daughter and experiencing her enjoying them has been wonderful.
What size is this tank? I'm assuming you're doing a fish-in cycle?
I am honestly not sure what the size is.
I always tend to find thrown out tanks while I am out. So I take them home and fix them up.
I have two others that I am going to work on now.
I am guessing it's about 25-30 gal.
The other two are around 45 gal for the corner tank and 65-70 for the panoramic tank.
Yes it is in cycle.
I live in Israel and the use metric here so when I ask people the always give me an estimate in liters, which confuses me.
My plans are for a community tank in the panoramic and a couple fire eels or snowflake morays for the corner tank.
I fixed the small tank first because it had a lid, while I have to build a stand and lid for the other two.
I fixed and put together a community tank for my mother as well, she has cichlids in hers.
But I want the one for my daughter to be easy to maintain so that when she is old enough I can teach her to care for them on her own and I can move it to her room.
