[QUOTE="mBasketballForeverm, post: 2389459, member: 822482"] I was thinking of things to get for Christmas (because my mom wants my list this week) and I thought, hey, why not get a pet? But my mom said it can't cost alot and it cant smell, can't be a dog, cat, snake, lizard, any of that stuff. So I decided on either fish, or 2-4 hermit crabs. I've had fish before...I had about 13 glo-fish...they died fast. 2 of this black small fish. 1 gold fish. 1 black gold fish with puffy eyes, and a shark fish (but that died fast because well, when I went to transfer it from the store bag to my tank, I had to use a ladle because i couldn't find the net, well the shark kind of went all hey wire and flopped out of the ladle, and I was afraid to pick it up so it was flopping everywhere and I was screaming and my mom wouldn't come up stairs to help me. so it ended up dying...crazy story haha) they all died within about 5 months. So I've been thinking maybe I should get hermit crabs. I didn't know the proper care for fish, but I've been doing research for a week now on hermit crabs and I'm going to continue doing reasearch on whatever pet I end up getting until Christmas. So, do you think I should get hermit crabs or fish? I've always wanted hermit crabs but my mom always said no. But now shes letting me for Christmas. What one do you think I should get and why? Please don't say anything that I shouldn't get anything because I went through about 20 fish okay? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
