On the weekend my darling daughter Danielle, created this gorgeous bowl of fresh water fish. She chose a ceramic pot, filled it with small pebbles and a lilac water lilly, a hiding hole (jug), added the fish (after the water was conditioned overnight). Now the fish look so pretty in this bowl which sits under the bali hut.*Update... now there are two bowls of fish and some have now had babies (which are in a small breeder which floats in the bowl.) Apparently if you don't whip the fry out soon after they are born, someones going to eat them !! They are so relaxing to watch and if your put you hand in the bowl they like to nibble your fingers... cute!

Watching fish is very addictive Jules! Ask me how I know....we started with one small 3' tank for display purposes and now have two 5' tanks and two 4' tanks all full of breeding cichlids!!! Great power bills!!! lol At least it keeps the 18yo son occupied...his hobby....he gets to clean them ;-)
i waaaant one!!!! hehe
Julie, is there a water pump in the ceramic pot .. or do you clean it like you would a fish bowl? What kind of fish is in there? :o)

Fish are beautiful Julie - our neighbours have a huge pond filled with Koi and it's a great show for the Kookas and cats, some are massive but you could sit and watch them for ages. Carmelx
Sulea, there is no pump yet, Dan's going to get one soon. And yes you do clean it like a regular tank.
Not sure of all the fish, but there are swordtails, guppies and lil spotty orange guys. LOL
Update: now there are 30 babies, holly fish city!!
