I love keep fishes as pets, although they cant really be called pets, but i think anything taken care by you and that is in your home is classified as a pet!

I have four fishes in one tank, I cant remember their breeds, as im not familiar with them, but all i can say is they look lovely. I love watching them swim in the water and it also makes my drawing room look good!

I think fishes are ideal pets to keep, as they don't cause any mess, and cleaning their water and feeding them is very easy!

No doubts, fishes look very beautiful in small aquariums but they require a lot of care and attentio. They generally don't survive for long if proper enviornment is not created and it becomes quite a costly affair sometimes.

I have two fishes which were gifted to me from my work collegues. And its nice to have them in my room, although the bad thing is that I don't know what kind of fishes they are, they are both orange in color.

I sometimes like staring at them for a long time and just adoring the way they swim.

I agree jessika its important to take care of fishes too, even though they are not out in the open. Simple care just means giving them clear water and food on time.

Orange - that's probably a goldfish.

I don't have the patience to maintain fish.
I would go with an aquarium screen saver instead ;-)

My daughter has an aquarium of fish. The funny thing is that she didn't buy any of them. She went to the creek and found them in the water. They have been alive for years. We did buy one algea eater to keep the tank clean.

Everything kept in the house is a pet and we are also pets for our parents.keeping fishes in glass boxes are very fine to look at maintaince will be a bit hard in the long run.

I am not interested in pet animals. Whenever we went to friends or relatives house and if they have fish tank, my son never move from that fish tank. He love to see fishes. So i thought of keeping fish tank in my home.

What kind of fish do you have at home? My friend told me that fishes are good luck. Do you think it is true? She even told that fishes relieved you from stress.

Well, if you believe with lucks, maybe fish could be one of your charm. Its just a matter of faith, I guess. Moreover, I do agree with your friend that they could help you relieved from stressed. What do you think that is in the fish that it would help you feel relax?

Farce, your comments are really a relief from stress! Keep them coming!

It is better to have fresh water fish in an aquarium than salt water fish. Fresh water fish require less maintenance, because you do not have to worry about water salinity.

It is nice to have an aquarium; yet, personally, I enjoy pets that I can interact with. I love cats, as they are very playful and affectionate animals. Plus, they are not really high maintenance either as opposed to having dogs. I also like hamsters but they don't smell too good, so I prefer having cats around overall.

I had many fish growing up but I was terrible at remembering to feed them or clean the tank so they were always dying. I prefer not to have them now, because I feel bad about that
