We have three dogs, one cat, two chinchillas and three guinea pigs. My dad wants to get a Ridgie so that might be four dogs soon...

Re: what other pets do you have?

As a fish lover I'd love to get all over you about having the 4 bettas together and the pleco in the 10 gallon as pleco's can get up to 2 feet in length and shouldn't be in anything smaller than a 55 gallon tank but I won't because it will be pointless. But I'd like to say that even though those 4 bettas get along now just wait and one day you will come home to either injured or dead fish.

Hahaha, where to begin...

Three dogs
Blackie - Lab/Rottie? mix, 12years old
Rose - Lab/Rottie?/ACD/GSD mix, 8yrs old
Chloe - Collie/Aussie mix, 5mths old

Two cats
Rush - Tabby cat, 14yrs old
Pheobe - Tabby cat, 6wks old (may not be ours...custody is in discussion right now.)

One Bird
Joey - grey Cockatiel (his offical coloring escapes me at the moment), 1yr

Two Ferrets
Casey Nukpana - sable simese point, 2 1/2yrs
Dameon Michael - cinnimon (more like Blonde) simese point, 1 1/2yrs

Numerous Rodents
Lucy Fir - Guinea Pig, 4?yrs

Freddie - Syrian Hamster, 2 1/2? years
Tobias - Gerbil, not even 1 year

I think that is everyone....

Now now It's not pointless. I've had fish for almost 10 years, I know how to care for my fish and I know how big what fish grow to and what tank requirements they need.

The pleco is a rescue from a woman who was going to dump it in the river- which I told her was illegal and if she were caught would get a rather nasty fine. So I told her I would take it. The pleco remains in the 10 gallon until it gets shipped off to an acquaintance in FL, along with over half the population of fish in my 55 gallon. For the time being, the pleco is 5" and is doing just fine. Also, to add, the pleco is, as plecos are, territorial, so it cannot live with the goldfish- In general, plecos are not suppose to room' with goldies for the fact that they like to suck the slime coats, which is bad for the goldies.

The bettas get along fine. There are 3 females and one male in the 15, and it's heavily planted (faux plants with some pothos). When they get "fishues" they have a place to hide, but as I am generally home most of the day I rarely ever see this occur and its normally a moment of flaring.

I understand your concern. I am often at Aquamaniacs.net and see the horrors that people put their fish through. I will gladly let you know that I am not one of those people- Hell, I even put my past Oranda goldfish through expensive surgery. When he died it was like the world ended.

So, all I ask is that you remain calm, take a breather, and understand I am not one of the crazies

It's understandable. We're in a material world where people take pets as furniture I get just as testy myself sometimes, no worries

Re: what other pets do you have?

Well besides Kenya, there's also another rescue dog and a cat that live here (me and my buddy live in this house...bachelor pad haha). I personally can't stand cats (send the flood of hate, sorry) so I try not to claim it.

I also have a saltwater aquarium that's young and right now contains an orange-spot sleeper goby, about a dozen blue-leg hermit crabs, various snails, a few chocolate chip starfish (that I'm trying to get rid of, they're a pest), and some feather dusters.
