Keeping fish is a lot harder than most people think.

I don;t feel so .

lol now my home the fishes were taken care by my parents.

they said I changed the water is dam slow.

thus in the end now they are the caretaker for the fishes

well I feel is good for them to take care too since fishes do help the elders reduce stress...

in fact most important is the water .

QRM,

It most certainly is. I kept salt-water aquariums for almost 30 years. I started keeping salt-water fish back in the late 70's and continued until I sold the whole lot when I bought my current flat. Didn't have enough room for over 500 gallons of tanks (2 - one around 300 gallons & the other around 200). Salt-water is a science and a good lesson in keeping a ecological system in balance. After a while, one can also see what & how we are destroying the ecological balance of this planet. I loved my salt water aquariums and when I return back to the states I'll set up my old ones again.
