We Need Each Other

The sentiments expressed above hold true for many relationships in our lives, especially family and pets. Last week I acquired 5 more mouths to feed.

It's been a couple of decades since I've had an aquarium of fish and in fact this one was/is Timmothy's but he wasn't using it so I decided to purchase 5 guppies (two male, three female) and stock the little tank.

The tank above is not the one we own but it is identical to it.

I believe that an aquarium is a beautiful decoration as long as it is maintained well. I do enjoy watching the fish and the sound of the  aerator is very soothing as well.

Again, the key to an aquarium being a beautiful decoration to your home is keeping it spotlessly clean.

I also look at it as a decoration Sham Reddy CRS . I am finding it hard to keep the water crystal clear and the fish healthy.

Hello Bob - I had an aquarium as a child but have been petless for many years err decades.  While I know the eventual outcome of the fish, I have no idea about the tank or any of the accessories.

I am finding it harder to keep this little aquarium clean then my old one that was much larger Michael Jacobs . I'm not doing so good with either the tank or the fish.

Good morning Bob. Never was a fish fan but my son did have a big aquarium pre-children. It is in storage for use at a later date. Enjoy your day.

If we lived closer Wayne Martin I'd be enquiring as to if he wanted to sell it because I'm not doing well with this little one.

Hi Bob,
I was never successful with an aquarium. I concluded maybe I was trying to keep it too clean.

That could very well be the problem I am having now Carol Williams . I've lost half of the fish at this point.

Fish are not the easiest to keep as the tanks get dirty nd the fish lose their oxygen.

That is the lesson I am learning right now Ed Silva, 203-206-0754 .

Enjoy the fish! And I agree with the cartoon! They'd be in trouble without Joe!

The sentiments of the cartoon are right on as we would all be in a fix without love. As of this morning I am down to two fish Kat Palmiotti so I need to make some kind of an adjustment before they are all gone.

Hey Kat Palmiotti when I went home for lunch I saw that the population went UP as the surviving female has been/gave birth.

Good morning, Bob... while it's always nice to see a beautiful aquarium regardless of size, I need another thing to maintain and clean like I need a hole in my head! :)

I completely understand Nina Hollander, Broker my love. If I were around you would have even less 🥰.

Hello Bob,  we just got rid of our 40 gallon aquarium last December,  It was lots of work and got to be to much.

That is a good sized aquarium Will Hamm . Was it salt water?

Bob "RealMan" Timm  good for you to feed more mouths, now in our home we could not have an aquarium, keep in mind we have two cats and they would figure out a way to make the fish into a snack, Endre

Between birds, rodents and fish we can't have cats in our house Endre Barath, Jr. While three of the fish have died there are at least a dozen babies swimming around now.

I haven't kept an aquarium in years.  I do miss the sound of the aerator, for the sound, as you say.

Nov 08, 2024 04:52 PM

I am enjoying the aquarium and the new babies in it Myrl Jeffcoat . It's not as clean as I'd like it to be but I'll get it figured out.
