I need to go trash hunting then! Haven't seen any tanks around here unfortunately tho, we share a "trash house" with several apartment buildings but I've never came across a fish tank.

NeroAnima: I've found 3 fish tanks just sitting outside in peoples trash. Only one of them needed to be fixed (cracks in the glass) the other two were in perfect condition. One even had lights and filters in it. They didnt work very well but we did end up using the light for something else. So my advice. look in peoples trash. lol its free.

Betta's can go with most fishies, just as long as they don't have long fins that intimidates them. Catfishes never seem to get into any problems, they just lurk around eating algae.

I've remember Betta' as being pretty aggressive. The catfish should take care of itself but hopefully something else that can hold its own can go with it.

I wanna start of easy so a catfish to clean it for me, perhaps a Crown Tail Betta and fishes that will go with the Betta

What sort of things would you want in them?

I've been wanting to get an aquarium ever since I started in the pet store All I need now is for someone to donate one to me, I'm waaay to cheap to spend any money on a tank.

nice fishes, haha i wish my tank was that clean.

that is quite great timing indeed!

A friend of my g/f is moving to Montreal and will be staying at our place for the month while she looks for her own place. Its great timing for all of us. The big moving day here is July 1st. And that's when we are getting back. Gives her a month to find a place and in return she looks after our place/pets.

who's caring for them on your month away Necro?

Me and my girlfriend got a bunch of fish. I'm not sure what the names of them are so i cant really say what kind we have. two of them have made babies twice now. we have about 20ish in one tank (there still pretty small) and we just noticed a few days ago that there is babies in the big tank that we have all the other fish in. I'll see if i can take some pics and post them.

Here is a video of my fishes

a Florida Gar and a signal Crayfish. Also not pictured is a plecostomus or however you spell it and a Catfish.

what type of fish are they?

hmm thats strange they come up just fine for me.

I dont see any pictures...

the difference is a matter of regional taxonomy. Technically all of them are crayfish but depending on where you are people call them a more soft name. Far as I know there are no crustacians known as crawdads. I must confess I never looked extensively either though.

what's the difference between crawdads and crayfish? I used to catch crawdads and they looked a lot like this.
