big al the aquarium feller that is…
whilst the childrens were at their grandmother’s house love-of-my-life karen and i went to the uber cool aquarium store and bought our way into the hobby…
’twas sweet… armed with a little reading research and some great advice from one of k’s board buddies who has run a fish store and had lotsa experience… we flagged down our new best pal trevor and spent an hour putting together a stylin’ setup…
we ended up going with a 72 gallon bow-front tank… upgraded the lights… upgraded the filter… got some stylin’ plants… and to start we got some velvet wag swordtails (xiphophorus helleri yo)… ’cause they’re cool lookin’ and… err… ‘hearty’… which means maybe we won’t kill ‘em as we ‘cycle’ the tank and get it all in equilibrium and ready to provide us with lotsa fish-watching-based joy…
