    So in November 2018 I got my first tank in a long time. I had been talking with my girlfriend about us getting pets for a while but living in an apartment that isn't dog friendly proved to be a hindrance. So we decided on fish. we started with a 10 gallon and quickly out grew that and decided on this tank here. Aqueon® 36 Gallon LED Aquarium Ensemble | fish Aquariums | PetSmart

    That red tailed shark is going to beat the shit out of everything in the tank. Get a couple angelfish to counter his agressiveness. Also, plecos love zucchini.
