A different kind of aquarium for the grandchildren

reptile, aquariumMy daughter said the children were finally old enough for a pet. They still are too young to go out walking with a dog. We had a family conference about which kind of pet would be the best to teach the kids responsibility and also have a pet they could touch and feel close to. We talked about parrots, and a hamster but after much discussion it became apparent that we would... Read More

Our Aquarium Brings Home the Magic of an Underwater World

aquarium

A couple of years ago, my boyfriend wanted us to get an aquarium. He had always had one before we moved in together, so he had the know-how to effectively set up an aquarium and maintain it. Plus, he missed having a fish tank in his home. Although I dearly love my pets, I had never had much interest in fish. I figured, I couldn't take them for a walk, play with them, or... Read More

The Gecko my kind of reptile

reptile

I have a friend whose son has a couple of small reptiles for pets. Normally, this doesn’t interest me at all, but I have seen his reptiles. He has a couple of Leopard Geckos. Her son indicated that these are the easiest of lizards to care for and are good for the novice. Now, I love the Gecko insurance commercials, so I already had a soft spot for these reptiles. Also,...

My wifes sister loves her Hamster

hamster

When I first started dating my future wife, Mari, I knew that one day she would be the one. I have never loved someone as much as I love her, and ever since the day I met her, I have always wanted to make her my wife. Eventually I did, but before that we dated for awhile. Nostalgically, I remember the day I first went to her house and met her family.
As I walked into Mari's... Read More

Making Room For My New Aquarium

aquarium, reptile


I just purchased an aquarium online for the first time last week. I have always had Parrots or Cockatiels, even a hamster, but now I am going to attempt to keep and take care of a reptile. Snake tending, according to my research is actually easy. Snakes are very low maintenance and are definitely a conversation piece. My ecosystem is a 100 gallon tank and I have actually... Read More

Hamsters are on a roll

hamster

My next door neighbor has two little girls who talk to me quite often when I am in my front yard. The other day, they came over and were so excited to tell me that they got a new pet hamster. They were jumping up and down and wanted to bring him out to show me. I quickly stated that I would ask mom if I could come in to see their new pet hamster. My neighbor thought a... Read More

My Family's First Aquarium

reptile, parrots

Little did I know when I purchased our first aquarium that my daughter would soon begin collecting so many different animals that we would become the neighborhood zoo. Our first pet was the cutest little teddy bear hamster we named Harvey. We would watch him for hours as he ran and ran on his seemingly endless journey on his squeaky little wheel. Next, we bought two white... Read More

An aquarium is great for retirees

hamster, aquariumOur family has always had pets. We love all animals; when the children were small, we started them off with a hamster. They learned all about responsiblity and caring for small pets. Somehow, that little hamster always seemed to get out of his cage and the whole family would spend hours searching for his hiding place.
When they got a little older, we decided to look for a... Read More

Grandma and Cockatiels

cockatiels

When I was growing-up, I was lucky enough that we lived right next door to my grandmother. Needless to say, my brother and I were always over playing and eating her terrific homemade food. What my grandmother always had in her house was her little Chihuahuas and her Cockatiels. She loved all her pets and was always talking to the dogs and Cockatiels. She had a pair of... Read More

My brother’s aquarium is amazing

aquariumMy older brother, David, really loves fish and recently he just bought a new aquarium for them online that is amazing. I have never even seen such a large aquarium, and I thought that he was kidding me when he called me and told me that he had just got a smoking deal on a 100 gallon aquarium online. He was also calling me to ask me if I wouldn’t mind coming over and... Read More

My Hamster, Speedy

parrots, cockatiels



My hamster Speedy lives in a very diverse world. His best friend is a reptile named Asslyn. Speedy's house is attached to Asslyn's aquarium via a clear plastic tube. I know that they can talk to each other because I think Speedy is the one that got Asslyn to be a vegan. Vegetables and soy are the only thing that Speedy and Asslyn eat. One time they played a trick on me. I... Read More

Allowing a child to have an aquarium is a good way to teach them how to take care of a pet.

aquariumI remember my first Aquarium. I begged my mom for weeks to let me have one. She always said no they are to expensive and to much for me to take care of. She said I would forget to feed the fish and they would die making the house smell. Oh, how wrong she was.

It took almost two weeks before she fianlly said yes. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't deceide if I should... Read More

I Thought My Aunt's Cockatiels Had Surf Boards When I Was A Child


CUTTLEBONE 6-10 INCH
cockatielsWhen I was a kid my late Aunt Jeanette had a couple of cockatiels in her home. I enjoyed looking at Aunt Jeannette’s cockatiels because they were quite pretty. To be quite honest I was also a quite a mischievous little girl and I liked to tease the cockatiels when my aunt was not looking. I used to stick my finger between the bars of their cages and...

The beauty of a fish aquarium

My family has had many pets during the years. I have to say the most "relaxing" of pets was our fish aquarium. We had a 10 gallon tank which was in the family room. It was a beautiful addition to our room and everyone always enjoyed watching the fish, including our cat. You need to do your research when purchasing your first aquarium. First, decide what kind of... Read More

An Old Blender becomes a Fish Aquarium

aquarium


Over two years ago my husband broke the kitchen blender. He had a brilliant idea to convert the useless piece of kitchen equipment into a fish aquarium. I thought it was a "tickle your funny bone" kind of idea and encouraged his making this happen!

He created a leak proof barrier by injecting a plastic sealer around the rim of the base. Then the electric cord was... Read More

Fish or Hamster? My Kids Picked Fish

aquarium, hamster
Our mall has one of those pet centers where they have the cute little puppies in the front window and we always have to check them out. This quickly moves to checking out the hamsters, birds, and the back aquariums with all the tropical and freshwater fish. Each time we go, the kids get all excited and want some sort of pet. The last time my wife and I gave them a choice;... Read More

A Hamster is great first pet for kids.

I had a Hamster when I was a kid. In fact had several of these furry little pets before my parents felt I was old enough to have my own dog. The one thing I did not get into other than Goldfish in a bowl was keeping fish in an Aquarium. A friend who live on the next street over loved aquatic animals and he had an Aquarium stocked with many different types of fish plus he... Read More

Thinking about an Aquarium?

aquarium

Aquariums make a nice addition to any home, however if you're thinking about adding an Aquarium, you might want to do a little research to see what would be the best fit for you. As I found in my won research, there are many different kinds of Aquariums and each one has its own special needs. Once you have that figured out, the next question is, where to put the Aquarium....
