Fancy guppy breeders have all gone back to box filters filled with glass wool and marbles to weigh them down!

Why not use a sponge filter? Seems logical to me.

Our first tank in my immediate family (my dad and mom and I ) was back in like 1993 i believe. And its been running on stop since then. Over 23 years now. Its a Perfecto 30g rectangle tank. Right now it has a bunch of guppies and platies in it. I havent re-sealed it yet but it needs it. Original pump too, and original heater until i broke it the other day lol.

MY first tank my mom bought me i was 15 and that was 15 years ago it was a 27g hexagon. Im 30 now, i recently drained it and put it in storage as i just got a 135g tank 34 years old from a guy with a iron stand for $100 that i re-sealed and put it in my bedroom, i put the 27g hex in storage and my 92g in my bedroom downstairs.

That's hilarious with all the deco

I can't remember my equipment as a kid but I remember having a tank with a few random fish - jack dempsey, Oscar & red devil (he found a new home fast)

I remember catching a crawdad in the creek and just tossing him in the tank lol. QT what's that? The dad actually got huge and started cutting all my fake plants so he had to go also. Should a boiled him

Ha, sounds just like me, except I usually always had a couple firemouth or jewel cichlids. My thing was 'testing their aggressive skills' so I had a bunch of 10gal tanks to keep them all separate until I could pair each in turns. I never let any get seriously hurt though. Once I started getting african cichlids even the smaller ones blew the competition right away.

If my tank had an under-gravel filter & air stone I had the best and was set.

EDIT: yes this was when I was a kid, maybe 9-10 yrs old
