| I love tanks and Im 14 and I had my first bigger (55gallon) tank when I was 12. All my friends make fun of me but I don't care. I actually cry ever single time when one of my fish die. I don't know if its just Im weird or I like my fish that much I don't know. But I guess some people like tanks, some just don't care its what ever your into. |

| My kids love the tank. They notice every little thing that was either added or changed. My daughter helps out with the top-off and my son is my tank sitter whenever I go away on business trips.
The best part of this is the look on their face as they gaze into the tank almost in a hypnotized state.
It's a truly great education for them. Teaches them appreciation and respect for life.
Cheers! |
