a dinosaur eel.

its a unique freshwater fish.

it is long with no top or side fins, but a long fin on its belly which helps it swim.

i chose to describe it because i cant find a picture of the exact one. it looked so neat and i ahd to get it, so as a reward from my grandma for passing all of my tests on the first try, shes getting one for me.

Fish tanks are known to be calming. Both my dr and my daughters dr and our dentist have fish tanks in their waiting rooms.

I mostly like to see the different kinds of fish in them.
My brother in law used to have a few tanks. My favorite was the tank with the Oscar in it. Until he decided he didn't like that tank anymore and headbutted the side repeatedly until he busted it.

If you want something else prehistoric try one of these. I'd had a couple of them over the years. They are freshwater and help keep you tank clean. I don't have the space for a tank anymore. Enjoy your new fish.

thats a neat fish. my grandmother just told me she used to have one, and that the only problem is you have to have a dirty tank or else they starve. how the heck do you keep a tank dirty?!

I'm sure. I always had enough fish in the tank, that it wasn't a problem. They eat off of the algae.
