Thought I'd post some pics of my mini zoo 
First its my geriatric hamster 'Diesel' he's so soppy and friendly, hes so 'odd' for a hamster, he's never stuffed his cheeks, never chewed the bars, never played on his wheel!! He's getting so old now though
Then its the noisy buggers
Thomas and Percy.... Have you guessed who has a train nerd of a son yet
My gorgeous cats ;D Nemo is the black and white. Jas bought me her for our 2nd anniversary, shes 2 now and I'll have had her 2 yrs next month. Garfield, who isn't much smaller is only 6 months! He's going to be a big lad
My xenopus frog ;D Big fat froggy Love my froggy
My big pleco and black shark. We've had them both for ages now and had to upsize tanks twice for the pleco so far! Hope he stops growing soon cos we can't go much bigger
The beast
This is Brads 'baby' he loves it to bits but I'm the one who has to put my hands in the tank and its evil 'shudder'
Last but not least, the paddle tail newts. We bought Brad these for christmas just gone and it was his fave present ;D They are so cute and friendly too. Always come up to the front of the tank when your near.
Phew! I'll do all the snails later

Although the average in a pet home is usually between 12" and 24". They're lovely, but they dont half poo *lmao* You'll probably need a minimum 4ft tank (by 18" at least, 2ft even better) and a really good filter, probably best to get an external canister one.
