    Yes, I remember the metal framed tanks with the wrought iron stand. My uncle opened a fish store and my Grandparents gave us an aquarium for Christmas. I remember we used to have an Angel Fish that I trained to follow my finger and come up to the top of the tank and wait for me to feed it a crushed snail... I think I was about 9 years old and I can't believe I actually remembered that. ;D

    :lol: I stared the FW world like 12 years ago with a betta bowl. I had him for like a year and then got a 10 gallon, then two 20g, then a 55g, then two 55g, :hehe: the list goes on and on. Ive only been in SW for alittle over a year. I have to say it is way cooler!! I cant wait to see my tanks when they are a few years old. I always got bored with my FW tanks and changed them every year or two, but in SW there is so much life you dont get bored.
