Our 55 Gallon Mixed Mbuna Tank |
| Quote: |
Know what you want, and Go For IT! |
| About Yourself: |
My husband is the one that always wanted an aquarium, so I grudgingly agreed that we buy a small one...on the condition that he's in charge of it! After a couple of months I was just crazy about our fish, and we upgraded to this 55 gallon mixed mbuna tank. Now I just love researching, aquascaping and keeping busy with my cichlids! |
| Advice: |
Be an educated consumer. Research and ask lots of questions before purchasing... |

Loved aquariums since I was too young to have one. Had them when I was 11 years old till about 14, then stoped keeping fish for a while.

One is never enough.... |
| About Yourself: |
I got into the hobby originally because my old man had an empty tank built into the wall when he bought this new house, which had a painting covering it up. I eventually convinced him it was a good idea to put some fish in it as long as i looked after it....
This wasn't too long ago - maybe November 2007 - since then i've swapped so many different fish with mate of mine, i cant keep up! But i think i've settled with these lil Fronts - good looking lil suckers =)
I have 2 tanks - the smaller 90ltr and a larger 150ltr (the one in the wall - although it LOOKS larger than 150ltrs when looking at the 90 next to it - although measurements and aquarium calculators tell me otherwise)
The larger tank houses 7x clown loaches, 1x Sailfin Pleco and 2x red devils - a male and a female =) |
| Advice: |
Don't be lazy or impatient? I'm new too! -lol- |
