:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: NO WAY!!!!! Thats too cool!!!!! Thats sooooo awesome!!!! I can't believe that. I want one of those in my house! I bet your fish love you. Lol!!! Your bird is too funny.
Yeah I watched the video on youtube, it's pretty sick.. But I could never do it. That would freak me out!!! Nice gar by the way. I never thought you would be able to pet your pet gar! Well I guess because he trusts you but it would just freak me out :S
Oh, to be young and still have that inability to not be humbled even when their own achievements fall so short as to not deam mention. Your quest will have no direction my friend. Best of luck................I'll be swimmin with my Aros!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol it's not rude at all. I was going to post something about that before but decided to keep my mouth shut. This is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. I'm jealous, it's beautiful and if I'm correct I think the fish are rescues? I think... Either way it's bomb. And when I'm rich :wink: Thats what a room in my house will look like.
and that is one of the good things about this hobby. we can all make our tanks just like how WE want. everyone has an opinion of what looks good and what looks bad, but i just felt like that tank has way to many amazing fish, time and money put into it just to be called boring.
Like you said all but a few are rescues and looks and color contrast are the least of my concerncs. The whole point was to provide a natural home for animals that deserved it. By the way there is a green terror in there his name is Chunk, he's a rescue, and is an old man. Look in the new vid and you can see him. Thank you again guys.
Question... what exactly is a rescue fish? Lol Sorry if this sounds dumb. But like what... Someone didn't have a big enough tank for the fish so you saved it for them kind of thing... Or is there way more too it?
I worked in the pet industry on and off for ten years and that's where it began. It was common for someone to walk in with or call about a fish they could no longer care for. Many such fish were too big for the store, or the store didn't have a desire for them. A lot of the fish I have ever kept, I got this way. The others were referred directly to me from outside sources. I still have a good relationship with a few stores in town, and the ASPCA knows where I am if they need me. It has no formal channels yet, but that's what we are working toward.
it stunning alot of time effort and money put into it, its nice to know that someone is looking after fish that cant find a place to stay. how may fish do you have in there?

My hero!!!!! Well fishs hero!!! Thats awesome I'm glad you care so much, and about fish too! When people say fish can't feel pain... I just want to punch them in the face. Lol sorry but thats just so... I won't get into it. But anyways. Thanks for caring! :wink:
that is an awsome setup! how do you feed them? wat do you feed them? how often do you feed them? :shock: how many do you have? wouldnt they fight with eachother? i think it is great that you care for them sooo much! how long did it take to get all those fish? if you bought them from a fish breeder how much would they cost? which is your fav? sorry for so many questions but its really interesting. 8)
really well done. it's mind boggling how you took a relatively small space and created spacious and comfortable homes for so many creatures. i don't envy all the work that must've gone into it, but what an amazing job and what an amazing family of critters.
