Pets question

[episemion]

One question I get in some surveys is how many of certain pet types you own. The limit is often like 20 of something. Understandable for most pets , but at least for fish , most people have way more than that. Not quite realistic.

Some home fish tanks can be very big & hold well over 20 small fish. BTW, a relative of mine once kept snakes & lizards as pets. And as to why, let's just say that he was sort of strange.....VERY strange.

Actually , at one time , I also kept herps in addition to fish and plants. Been in fish since 1971 and plants (orchids and bromeliads mostly) since 1978. For several years , I was breeding a couple of gecko species and selling the offspring to a local shop.

Never had fish so I never thought of this. I am a dog person! Good Post!
