Imagine yourself in their shoes.. or tank for that matter.

While I was grocery shopping this past week, I found myself in the wandering into the pet aisle.  Weird thing is I don’t even own a pet. I've always wanted a cat or a dog of my own, but my apartment complex doesn't allow for one.

As I’m walking by all the toys and cute clothing for my imagery dog I come face to face with about ten tanks containing a variety of different fish. Right then I knew I was going to be leaving with one.

Once I’m being checked-out I realized I didn't get what I came there for because I was so interested in the new fish I got. I decided what ever I need could wait, I had to get Jaws in his tank fast.

Now you make think how can a boring old goldfish entertain me while I’m bored? Well, here’s the answer: Imagine yourself in their shoes… or tank for that matter.

It’s crazy to think. Can you picture yourself alone swimming in a tank for of water for your entire life?

This made me start to feel sorry for Jaws (he suits his name well) so I went back to the store and bought another fish named Fred. I know soon I will probably own an aquarium of fish.

This is a very inexpensive way to keep yourself from being bored. I spent $25 dollars all together.

Fish: .75 cent - $3.00

Tank: $5- $15 (depending on size)

Food: $5

Things for inside tank: $10  

It can keep you from being bored because you have to remember to feed them every day and clean their tank once a week.

Jaws and Fred aren't as interactive as a dog or cat would be but, they still make for interesting pets. I really enjoying having them.
