    My fish tank

    I only do measurements in cm, inches & feet so off I went 2 years ago to buy new fish tank & they are all in metres & mm HELP, anyway after being in shop for a hour I spotted a lovely tank on stand in a book the assistant had given me to browse through so I bought it - I should point out I only got 3 goldfish, anyway 2 days later my tank & stand turned up, my men just stood there looking at the tank & then looking at me the tank was wee bit bigger than I thought it was, it was 2 metres & not 2 foot I had got metres & feet mixed up :) so here are some photos of my 4 goldfish in their new tank.

    All set up ready for my goldfish

    Looks like they're living a life of luxury.

    I miss the fish we had in a pond in our last garden. Though they'd all disappeared before we moved (thanks to the local heron I assume - I think a cat might have been able to catch the odd one, but not clear the pond.)

    We have a river at the bottom of our garden and sometimes see fish there. I've thought about feeding them, but then remembered the farmer who owns the field at the back allows a couple of his friends to fish there. So it would seem a bit unfair on the fish to attract them to that particular spot!

    Lol what are you like Tina :lol: I used to have a large tropical tank, not quite as large as 2 metres though. I ditched it years ago but have no idea where I would accommodate a 2 metre tank and this is a big house. I stick to fish in the pond these days and there's not much danger of them disappearing as they seem to breed like crazy.

    I just hope they appreciate it. I believe fish grow to suit their surroundings, so they should become whoppers!

    I got the fish from a traveling fair, they looked so sad in plastic bags I made my men win them for me, it was only when we got home I realise I didn't have a fish tank, so they lived in a babies bath for 5 weeks, until I bought the tank letting it settle before transferring the fish over to it.
