> I just bought an aquarium and some gold fish. They're really great! Very meditative and interesting to watch. Definitely helpful for depression, anxiety, etc. Fish have a very different reality than ours (I think). I'm not sure if they get depressed but mine seem pretty happy and active. I never thought fish could really be defined as "pets" like dogs and cats but I'm surprised that I've already developed an attachement to them.

If they get depressed, do you feed them fish oil supplements? =P
