Who Gives A Fish Forums

I'm hoping I can find a tank that's just the right size, big enough for Bob to swim around but small enough to fit on the dining room table. I've grown pretty attached to having him as part of the family, and I love that he has his own special spot. Not sure how I'd manage with two seats at the ...
