Tippy

Today I will be talking about fish. I had fish for a year and they are actually quite difficult at first, or at least mine were. I received fish as a Valentine's present and a week after  I got them they all died. I was heartbroken. We couldn't figure out what was wrong. We still haven't discovered what it was, but after awhile we were able to keep them alive for months at a time.

We still have one surviving fish named Tippy, he was given to my daughter as a birthday present. He loves his new home and will only eat a certain type of tropical flake. If you try to feed him anything else he just won't eat it. He also likes to swim under the filter over and over again. He can do this for hours!

Fish are hard at first until you learn what to do to clean the tank, what chemicals you can and can't use in the water, the food they will eat, and how often you have to clean the tank. Once you figure that out fish are low maintenance pets and are quite entertaining.
