Hi,
My son has been asking for fish for a long time. I wasn't going to do it because I don't want it to be a lot of work. A woman I talked to recently told me that she bought two fish from you and . well, here's what she told me: "My daughter wanted fish, and I had NO desire to clean the tank, etc. I went to a place that specializes in fish, and we ended up with 2 fish (unfortunately, I have NO idea what kind of fish they are, but if you go to the fish place, they can tell you). They're together in one fish bowl. Just a bowl...no tank, filter, or any other stuff to mess with. I bought an extra bowl so all I have to do is fill one with clean water about once a week and transfer the fish to the clean bowl. I toss the other bowl in the dishwasher, and we're good to go. We got them at Uncle Neds Fish Factory in Medway. http://www.unclenedsfishfactory.com/ They were very helpful."
What kind of fish are that simple to care for? I know my son will want the decorative rocks and such, but having no heater, filter or chemicals is appealing to me, since I'll be doing all the work. If you could get back to me with that info. that would be great. hopefully I will bring the boys in on Sunday for some fish/supplies.

Thanks!

They were Paradise fish.
Yes they are very easy.
Bettas are also easy.
Betta and Paradise fish info is here:

The dish washer is a big mistake.
Any amount of soap can kill a fish.

Fish tanks are easier than bowls...
should take 20 minutes a month.
