Any Kids??

[tangsrule27]

I am new to this board and was wondering if there are any kids here. I am a kid and was wondering what kinds of tanks other kids might have. I am only 13 and have a FOWLR. Sometimes it is hard to come up with money to support sw tanks and I wanted to know how other KIDS did it. I can because I get 25.00 a week mowing and vacuuming but sometimes that doesn't always cut it. Please reply.

Hey, I'm not a kid anymore, Im 21 right now but I got into the hobby at about your age. I know it's hard to come up with money at such a young age. The way I did was by doing chores just like you, I had a small 20 gallon tank that I got on my birthday so that setup was already taken care of. To pay for fish and what not, I used to mow the lawn, do the dishes, wash the cars, and basically do any menial slave labor that my parents wanted me to do but I basically just had to save up my money from doing chores to buy fish.

I'm gonna send this on over to the Aquarium where it will fit in more. And by the way, when I was a kid I mowed a lot of lawns, too. Although my parents helped out a lot.
