  • My cat ate my goldfish. It was in a bubblegum machine aquarium. I stepped on its decapitated head and that’s how I found out.

    No Corals yet

    It takes a huge amount of patience and work to keep it clean and healthy. If you dont have the time or patience then dont do it.

    Bought my daughter an aquarium for her 5th birthday. Not a bowl with a fish. A full blown salt water aquarium with 5-6 beautiful little fishies. She systematically and methodically found a way to kill every last one of them like the psychopath I raised her to be. Love that kid.

    That's beautiful

    Not at all, feel free. Also, too much work for me for sure. I almost have the dog trained to take her self out.

    So cool!

    I had an aquarium for a while...just like a regular fresh water one. Met wife, she decided (this is before marriage) to buy a bunch of crabs and put in there.

    They eventually ate all the fish, then each other...and then the last few started escaping. Sometimes we would find them and sometimes not. I legit wonder where some of those crabs went off to on certain days.

    She fell asleep one time and had a dream about the crabs biting her and woke up screaming. I still laugh about that.

    It was a real shame because some of those fish had survived this long ice storm where we had no power for a week.

    At their bachelorette party one of them knocked over the aquarium and then we decided we just weren't ready for the responsibility.

    * during that ice storm I knew a guy with some awesome salt-water fish, all kinds of things. He was heating up water bottles and putting those in the tank trying to keep it all going and it did work.

    I can see how people really get into them. They are really beautiful. Expensive hobby and time consuming, but very pretty. Good hobbies are often like that.

    I tried to keep a little fish tank in my water dragons cage and they ate them too!
    Its not funny but I'm still laughing over your wife's dream. Id die lol.

    I never realized how bad I want @MeeseeksAndDestroy in an aquarium in my living room until I saw this!

    Creepy how? Does he give you the evil eye?

    If he escapes and you woke up with him on your ceiling above you I could see how that would get real creepy.

    He has bug eyes and he just sits on the side of the glass like this all the time staring. Its awful.

    I had an iguana for awhile that would escape. He never ended up on my ceiling but he was spastastic and would come racing across my feet unexpectedly.
