fish are pretty awesome, I had a salt water tank a while back. Absolutely loved the fish, amazing colors and just the diversity of them all. Unluckily though, right about when the tank was about to be cycled or what ever they call it, the tank broke and sprayed water all over the place. I tell you that is a horrible way to wake up in the morning, not to mention I live on the second floor of an apartment. I saved the fish, found a new home for them that day, I'm still debating if I should try it again.
