Aquarium Advice Regular
Why are children discouraged from fish keeping? I've had fish since i was 6 and took good care of them. My ghost knife lived 5 years. I got a 50 gallon when i was 8 and haven't had a single death in the tank yet! I don't understand why children are told not to get fish until they are older. I have a well established, planted aquarium with snaills, shrimp and fish that get together and look awesome, i change the water, feed them 2 times a day and spend my money on it. It confuses me how people scare kids away from the hobby. I'm 11 and i love it!
