My Straight Tail Angelfish
Very inquisitive, so much so I have to be extra careful when arranging inside tank because he/she will approach instead of hide! |
| Quote: |
"May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds."
-- Edward Abbey |
| About Yourself: |
I inherited the tank, filter, and heating element from my sister when she moved to California to become a marine biologist; apparently something about Kansas wasn't fitting with her educational field. ;) |
| Advice: |
1. Read at least a little about it before you buy anything past initial setup.
2. Let initial setup (tank, filter, heat, gravel, decoration, plants) sit for a week before you add any fish.
3. Add fish according to method recommended by local fish store (usually floating method).
4. Add fish/change anything slowly. Don't over feed. |

red paradised gourami. |
| About Yourself: |
I like having a fish tank, it's almost an addiction for me. I have to stop by a fish store almost every time I pass one. I also am a photographer, so taking pictures of my fish is a challenge that can be worth it in the end... |
| Advice: |
Start out with something small and simple. Then slowly work to something bigger. My first tank was a one gallon hex over twenty years ago, and I started with zebra danios and gold fish |
| Fish Kept: |
one Angelfish, two red paradised gouramis, two zebra danios, three leopard danios, two scissortail rasboras, one featherfin synodontis, one julli cory, one farlowella catfish, one whiptail catfish, one bumblebee catfish, three otocinclus catfish, one marble loach, one black kuhli loach, one bolivian ram |
