in RHM: Sam? Is It Easy?
On a lighter note, did you know that some residents actually name the fish after a few fellow residents? One of the newer fish – the biggest one (Betta Fusca) - is named ‘Sam’. Does ‘Sam’ take up too much space or eat up other fish?
That’s new… I didn’t know Sam was in the tank; and no, the Fusca doesn’t disturb the other fish more than Sam disturbs the other residents. However, I have heard of other names for the fish/shrimps… Samantha? Or was it Elizabeth? It doesn’t really matter what you name them as long as you can identify and appreciate them. J
Which fish is the hardest to take care of? Is it the Chocolate Gourami? It seems to be a ‘high maintenance’ sort of fish.
There isn’t a particular “high-maintenance fish” because the RH Fish Tank is a community of fish, and care has to be given to the tank as a whole… I’d like to say that it’s not simply “Step1: Add Water, Step2: Add Fish”.
But to answer the question about the Chocolate Gourami, yes, it is one of the more delicate species in the RH Fish Tank because it doesn’t take well to the constant stresses of being shocked by knocks/taps on the glass.
Do you encourage other residents to have their own fish tank? Why or why not?
No; not unless they have a passion for learning about them, how to care for them, how to provide a proper environment for them to live in, and how to treat them in times of illness. Many-a-times people keep fish because the fish look good when healthy and swimming around, but when the fish fall sick, the owners just leave them to suffer and die; would you like that to happen to you?
