I am 17, i have been keeping FW fish by myself for about 6 years now, and before that me and my dad have always done fish together. He dosen't like SW because he doesn't want to do the work. And he is finally starting to support me a little bit and i am getting happier about the situation now. He is not necessarily liking it, but he does support me with my fish keeping. I think he is scared that i am going to move out and leave all the fish behind for him to take care of. He says he is tired of having the responsibilities of a animal owner do to he has been doing it his whole life which i can understand. Even though i complain i really am lucky that he is supportive. As of the job aspect i work part time at a sports bar called beef o bradys. And yes, they are making me pay the electric bill for this aquarium obsession i have. My parents did this anyways with all my brothers and sisters (i am the youngest). When we get older and have a job we take over 1 bill to used to being on our own and paying bills. It is just instead of paying part of the electric bill or taking over a cheaper bill i am paying the electric bill completely do to the fish tanks i have.
