Do you think that most people that own...
 

aquariums have them because they like playing God?

Don't kill the fish. :(

the image of sagi looking at his fish tank with the crazy look on his face is in my mind...lol


put down the fish net man!

;)

Nah I don't own fish. But I knew a guy in college that had this amazing fish tank which was like an entire world that he controled from the fresh water shrimp to exotic plants. It was a pretty cool tank too and the way he set it up with the right type of fish and bottom feeders he got it to be pretty self-sustaining (very minimal cleaning was needed) except for the food that he needed to add.

i like fish tanks they are relaxing

Aquariums are a lot of work.

i got a newt hehe didnt know they can live to be like 30 years old when i bought him 14 years ago :1orglaugh

food?

i want to start a salt water tank....but every one i see has the nasty white stuff all over the top of the tank...is there a way to stop that? or is cleaning it everyday the solution?

white stuff is usally new tank syndrome, its like a foam that you see right?

no, its like a crustation on the black tops....maybe its the foam coming out and drying

oh yeah, i have that shit all over my newt tank lid and on the stand fucking lime i think..

I've had mine up for over a year and its never needed cleaning. If you do it right, get your biological filter working, dont overfeed the fish, and keep the ph balanced, they really dont need much else.

I'd like to add that my tank is freshwater, not saltwater

:1orglaugh

my aquarium...

"God" is kinda strong, and leads things in a sorta megalomaniacal direction -- :winkwink:

For me, it was always a desire to make something, but also an intense desire (no, a thrill, really) to bring a "capsule" of a very different, very far away place -- complete with the inhabitants of such a place -- into my close keeping.

That's why for me the most exotic habitations, which are, of course the most difficult to recreate and maintain, were always the most appealing.

Here's a mini-reef tank I had in New York...

i have a fish tank and i got it all hooked up, even got a bottom feeder to take care of the algae but now my fish keep dyin cuz the bottom feeder grew to be REALLY fuckin big, and it is shitting EVERYWHERE and ALL THE TIME, its so hard to keep the tank clean now cuz of that thing shitting, and the shit is giving the tank bacteria and causing my fish to do of bacteria related diseases.

im about to take the fuckin thing & release it into Lake Michagin :disgust
i only have 1 fish left, the other ones died already :(

god told me to sell my virginity on the interweb i was told to my online :warning

nmy friends have saltware fishtanks and freshwater prob about 5-6 tnks

Nice. :thumbsup

It's SimCity for the non-technologically inclined. :)

Fresh Fish.
its whats for dinner.

I was at this party last month, this guy had two ponds in his living room one with sharks and one with huge goldfish looking things.

It was so James Bond, totally cool.

Oh, beg to differ, Elli -- technology is very much a part of it, and systems design, and a nice foundation of organic chemistry (just to give a prospective "God" the fullest satisfaction in his work) never hurt -- :)

check it out, I actually have this kick ass waterproof case for my Nikon that I got for taking it out on the ocean.... so a few weeks ago I got this bright idea to stick the camera in the pond and take some pics of the fish..... but most of them went and hid behind a plant as soon as I stepped in, and the others moved too fast to capture.... lol

this is the best I could get
