I'm alergic to fur and feathers so it pushed me more towards fish and my toad. Goldfish are nice it's just I like to get a variety of cool tropical fish. Sometime I want to get a pond for goldfish, they have nice ones at my local country max.

I like tropicals too, and I my tropical planted tank is my favorite tank, though they aren't my favorite fish if that makes sense. I am getting out of the cichlid thing... just have two left. Too much drama for me. I can't say that I will ever have really aggressive fish again. It was cool seeing them breed and raising the babies but I don't want to do that constantly or deal with deaths from aggression and trying to keep it properly stocked ($$$!!!!) etc.

Love a peaceful tank.
