I prefer the Anabantidae; gouramis and such. And amphibians!

We can buy 210 ltr tanks here at WalMart for $159 w/hood. I want to put
some nice large stuff in my basement too as a heat sink. Lotta thermal mass

I am working on taking the warm grey water from both bathrooms (tubs
only) and storing it next to the air handler in the basement; this home is
ideally configured for that. I can run a small pump and preheat the intake
air
