Zebrafish

Owning an aquarium is a very popular hobby with millions of people around the world. Besides a delightful passtime, an aquarium helps relieve stress. I had my first aquarium when I was in high school, and it was a tiny one. I think it was a 5-gallon fish tank. When I moved to the US, hubby bought me a 20-gallon fish tank.

One of my favorite fish is the ZEBRAFISH. They're cute and they swim far faster than goldfish.
Recently, I bought a new big tank for my fish. Now, I'm maintaining 2 fish tanks. Maintaining an aquarium is not a pain in the b**t. Nope, not at all! I only change filters once a month, and have my bottom feeders and janitor fish cleans the inside for me...lol!

It's relaxing to sit and watch fish swimming around the tank.

My dad had tropical fish when I was a teenager, and I liked the zebrafish, too.
Good choice for Z day!

Yours is very clean. At one point my aquarium has at most 8 differnt fishies for a 50 gallon tank. Now I only have 2 and want to go back to getting more.

Your Zebrafish is very interesting. And the cutie next to the aquarium most delightful.

Great winsome smile by Akesha besides the aquarium. My wife bought an oversized aquarium before and I always had trouble cleaning it because of its sheer size. I also had problems of transferring the fishes whenever I clean the aquarium. I don't want to buy another aquarium, not if I will be the one to clean it, hehehe. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always.
