Water Me

Ever since I can remember remembering I have been interested in water.

My earliest memory is I am squatting in water at Wild Waves in WA state U.S.A

When I was little I took swimming lessons and I do not remember being afraid (except for being cold) at all and I swam pretty good.

Another memory is walking on a bridge with my dad and lilies (like below) were in the water and frogs too. I wanted those frogs SO bad!!( I never Caught one and my dad wouldn't) 

I've only been in a boat once or twice and the first time I looked over the edge ( with help from my dad ) and in the water there were whales or some other water mammal (I don't remember)

About two or three years ago (from writing this post) I started to keep the cheap gold fish and feeder guppies in the little dinky bowls I bought myself. back then I didn't even know fish could get sick; and none of them lived more than two months (now I know that they were not well taken care of)

one time during this period ( at the time some cousins lived with us) I was on vacation with my mom and my cousins were taking care of my goldfish and it died while I was gone and my cousin Clayton said it was fun to see it go down the toilet. you can probably Imagine how angry and sad I felt at the same time. 

Then about two years ago I said; "I want to breed Guppies!!" This was my list of supplies:

1. 2 male guppies

2. 4 female guppies

3. 7 inch by 10 inch fish bowl

But the guppies kept dying on me! Luckily the pet store let you bring in a fish that died within thirty days and get a new one.( I later learned that they are Tropical fish and really can't live in cold water fish bowls)

Then I looked up online and It said; "guppies need a ten gallon fish tank to breed in. so, for Christmas Santa Claus gave me a ten gallon fish tank. That was last Christmas. I have been in my fish-keeping hobby for almost three years and I have learned many ways to keep my fish out of fish grave yard. (the toilet)
