My mother in law pulled me aside and asked me if she could get a hamster for my daughter for Christmas. I had to laugh, because I had some rules that had to be followed before she could get one, and she had not done what she needed to do. I guess my daughter thought it might be easier to ask Grandma for the hamster. Unfortunately, my landlord recently told me that she didnt want any new pets, though fish would be acceptable. I told my mother in law that if she wanted to get her a complete aquarium set, then that would be just fine. However, fuzzy critters are now out of the question.
I told her to get a complete aquarium set because I didnt want to be running around to find everything that is needed if that is what she gets her this year. When we get home from our Christmas with my husbands family, and my little girl has a fish tank, she is going to want to put it to good use right away. That means that if I dont have everything you would find in a complete aquarium set, I am going to be doing more shopping, which is quite frankly the last thing I am going to want to be doing at that time of the year. Shopping is great, but Im worn out by the end of December.
When you think about it, getting a complete aquarium kit is probably the easiest and fastest way to go, and if you have permission to get an aquarium for a child, the parents are going to love that they dont have to go buy more stuff to go with it, unless of course, they go out to get fish. It saves time, and you know everything included will work together like it should without having to second guess purchases. These should come with filters, aquarium, and many of the different things you put inside like the gravel and the plants.
When searching for a complete aquarium, you may find a set at your local pet store, or you can find them online in some cases. Shipping can be tricky when dealing with glass, but most who sell them know exactly how to protect such things when they go through the mail. You can probably save money when buying a complete aquarium set as opposed to buying everything separately, and you will also be glad you dont have to worry about forgetting something. There are many different sizes and sets from which to choose, so take some time to shop around before you buy.
