Aquariums

I didn't know it was the "largest indoor aquarium in the world. Look at the pacific northwest. It sucks there isn't a good picture, but that one tank is huge, and the far wall is huge glass looking right over the lake. If you ever go to Chicago for any reason, be sure to check it out, because Chicago is pretty lame otherwise.

They are muchos fun to poke with a stick and pop, we get shitloads of them in 'stralia.

And here I though it was a thread on Fish Tanks.

I have had one running of some sort since I was 8...

Mystic in CT is amazing, they really have done a terrific job with the place. Ever time I go, I end up coming home and upgrading my tank at home. :)

Yeah, it's a really nice place. I've been going there since I was a little kid. Now, you can go to Mystic during the day, and hit the casino after. Makes for a great day trip.

What kind of fish do you keep wildkat? I just tore down my tank, I'll always set up with a certain species then after about a year I get burnt out. I think I'll leave it down for good this time till my son is old enough to keep one of his own.

Name it, Ive had it at one point.

Right now I am down to a 30Gal fresh water, a Rosy Barb who will not die, he must be pushing 5 or 6, a pair Tiger Danios, couple of Gouramis, the requisite Redcap lionhead goldfish, a pleco and a rapidly growing catfish.

I'm going to stay freshwater for the future, Salt water fish are more colorful and beauitiful, but they are a pain to keep running, and losing a $4-10 freshwater fish is a lot less painfull than loosing a $50+ saltwater fish.

I understand, the last fish I kept were Discus. I had an Ocean Green(Jack Watley), Red Striated, and a Pigeon Blood. Also a Phantom green pleco in a 29 gallon tank. The upkeep on Discus was just too much and I burnt myself out on them. You're suppose to do water changes every other day and I did for a while but it got really frustrating doing it that much.
