We were in a quandary up to the last two days as to what to do with our many fish. We bought a 46-gallon aquarium just months ago, not knowing we'd be moving so far away so soon. We had upwards of 12 fish or so, including black phantoms, neon and lemon tetras, and a couple of speckled ones Aaron picked out and dad didn't manage to catch the name of at the pet store. We found a home for one of the black phantoms and the two red and blue neon tetras in Mrs. Alseth's fish tank at Chase Lake (Aaron's kindergarten teacher a couple of years ago). As her tank is on the small side, we maxed out with those fish and had to find a home for the rest. With only one day's grace left, the head of our apartment complex's maintenance department came over and took them off our hands, having two tanks himself and apparently ours would be tiny compared to his. Hopefully not bait??!
The challenge in Minnesota will be keeping the water level constant in the tank. The winters are so dry there, it will likey evaporate half it's volume every 48 hours if not sooner...
