Throughout my childhood I had a variety of carnival goldfish, kept in the traditional bowl, no filter, just some nice frighteningly brightly colored pebbles at the bottom.

I excelled at conducting fish funerals.

While I have occasionally considered having an actual tank as a grownup, it's never gotten beyond the vague thought stage. I don't have a decent space in my apartment to put a tank, but the level of indifference that goes into basic fish care would probably work with my lifestyle. And I could have one of those treasure chests with the bubbles. And the diver. One of my friends has a 20 gallon tank with an assortment of larger fish that are apparently fancy, large goldfish, so I get to enjoy hers on about a weekly basis.

I was really good at Sea Monkeys, and I may still have my Microview Ocean Zoo in a box somewhere.
