| About Yourself: |
I watch my tank more than tv! Fish are relaxing and my cichlids keep me entertained :) I've had reef, planted and all things in between, cichlids have been the best so far! |
| Advice: |
Take your time - there is no rush. Study as much as you can on EVERYTHING.... From tank size to the species of fish. Good planning is all worth it in the end. |

This is Finley, my beautiful 2.5" Crowntail Male Betta. He's very friendly and active. Little guy is always swimming and showing off.
Update: He unexpectedly died about 2 months after this picture was taken, looks like it might have been a tumor. He was great, and this pic reached #2 overall. He's famous. :) |

Is that a dorsal fin I see behind you? |
| About Yourself: |
I live in Southern California and am a psychotherapist. I'm passionate about my work, golf, my 4 dogs and 6 cats, and now my fish. But not in that order!
I don't remember why I got my first Betta about 3 years ago, but that got me hooked on having at least one Betta nearby. In recently learning that keeping Bettas in vases is actually cruel, I was exposed to the fish/aquarium hobby, fell in love with it, and got a real tank. Now I can't keep my arm out of it or my eyes off it. |
| Advice: |
Start slowly, buy the biggest tank you can properly support (weight/dimension wise) in your home, thoroughly research the fish's wants/needs before you buy them, and consider fishless cycling as a humane option. |
| Fish Kept: |
36 gallon tank: Four Guppies, one Dwarf Neon Rainbowfish, three Black Neon Tetras, one female Betta...for now.
3 gallon tank:one African Dwarf Frog (Wayne)
Hex 5 gallon: one male Veil Tail Betta (Marvin)
6.6 gallon long: one male Half Moon Betta (Barricuda)
|
| Plants Kept: |
All of mine are artificial. I recently started the hobby and I'm not up to keeping live plants. My tank is made to look as natural as possible, it is dense with tall dark green across the back with a smattering of lt. green, red and yellow, a 36" floater, and a few short or creeper plants up front. This is about the only thing I got right the first time. |
| Tank Size: |
36 |
| Description: |
Perfecto 36 gallon glass bow front, 30L x 20H x 13D, 2 Penguin 150s, heater at 77-80 degrees. Small-sized black gravel with an artificial piece of rock/driftwood combination, 36" artificial floater, and densely planted artificial greenery. |

my bullrout (notesthes robusta)
found on the eastern side of australia lives in brackish water and fresh
it is a greedy predator that ambushes its prey
it is a scorpionfish one has to be cautious with handeling since it dose have poisionous spines the sting is quite painful and at mature age u would be in for a visit to the hospital
they are one of my fav fish they can be tamed if u can get them at an early age
