I wish I could be bothered to keep fish. I tried it once and they all died, one of them ate one of the others. What a faggot.

I have a 55 liter fish tank:
2x Rasbora heteromorpha
2x Gymnocorymbus ternetzi
1x Ancistrus dolichopterus
3x Neritina natalensis

I clean the filter pump and change the water every few weeks, if I CBA.

Two times the water even died, when I was partially exchanging it, and stirring up all the fish crap from the sediment. Fishies were swallowing air and I needed to evacuate them.
The first 3 snails I had died rather quickly, as mollusks can't tolerate too drastic changes. I then installed a bubble pump in addition to the filter, and now everyone in there is happy.

I plan to get a bigger 240 liter tank though, with an external filter pump with an added UV-light sterilizer lamp.
if only that were a terminator head in the fish tank, then it'd be cool

I have a tropical aquarium, 100cmsx40cmsx50cms (approx 50 gallons) but only 3 fish. I had more but well, they didn't survive

Straight on:

Lol - Tanks are high maintenance. You have to empty them and clean it all out periodically.
It's not a daily thing though. All you really need to do is tap some food in their from a jar each morning and once a month clean out the tank.

Compared to other pets it's pretty low maintenance.

Don't know how to embed photobucket videos (if they can be?) so if someone else would be so kind?

Just the fish swimming around "normally";

http://s140.photobucket.com/albums/r15/ … t=fish.mp4

And once I'd fed them;

http://s140.photobucket.com/albums/r15/ … eeding.mp4

You have to actively distribute the food around the pond otherwise the 2 big carp (Ghost Koi and common) hoover everything up

Good fun though, and so relaxing to watch on a warm summers afternoon

Off the top of my head:

Koi, Japanese and pure,
Ghost Koi,
Common carp,
Blue and orange Orf,
Tench,
Goldfish.

Probably a few hybrids in there now too, the large Ghost Koi is about 16 years old or so and the rest of the larger fish are pretty mature too.

Whats the chance of purchasing a day ticket for ya pond mate, I got a licence and I wont use nuts as bait ?  I'll be honest its only the Common im after, dont suppose you could chuck a couple of double figure Mirrors in there aswell could you?

Would you be able to do any refreshments aswell?

Ahhh no you cant go eating 'carp', way too boney, and the ones in lakes taste like shit, afterall, thats what they were brought to the UK for, eating shit basically.

People have all chipped in to build lakes and stock them with 40lb carp, real specimens in the 'angling' world, even naming these beloved fish.  Only to find cheeky Romanians and Albanians, netting them and eating them as they see them as a delicasy (sp) cheeky bastards (I spelt that bit correct)

All I have to do for my cat it put him outside and feed him in the morning, and let him in and feed him at night. And maybe give him a bath once  year or something.

Carp are fucking pest. Only fish in Australia without a size or bag limit.
