Okay, so tonight on my weekly wal-mart visit, I decided to try my hand at a planted aquarium, lol. I loved the moneywort they had the week before, but had to settle for some wisteria (not too nice looking yet, but it was in a tank with a few 9 inch koi). I currently have 3 wpg in my 10 gallon female tank that it *should* grow nicely in.

Omgosh you guys, they had the CUTEST fish I had ever seen tonight! They were baby fantail goldfish, MAYBE an inch or so long. They were so adorable that I think I am going to get another 10 gallon. And they are pretty easy to care for too, since you don't need a heater. I think I am going to get 2 and put them in a 10 gallon with a good filter, these are supposedly the small variety (I know you are only supposed to have 1 goldie to a 10 gallon, but I am going to have good filtration,a nd if they out grow it, I can give them to an asian petstore that has an indoor pond). I can't believe how cute they were!!!!

Actually, I am thinking hard on if I want to get a big tank or not. I was thinking a 55 gallon, but it would be soooo expensive. The tank/kit is $130, and the stand is $80. But the water bill, decorations, ect, would be a lot of money. Although its beauty would pay off ;). I still think that its too much m oney to spend, so maybe my parents will help me out on buying it...if I am able to.
