My 55 Gallon ( I want a bigger one :D) with African Cichlids, 1 clown loach, and a monster Pleco!! The water is a bit cloudy, but I just recently set it up, so it is still filtering. I previously had angel fish and gouramis in it, but I moved them to a smaller tank. |

most of my cichlids |
| Advice: |
Reserch before you start. Just because some cichlid foods are marketed for all cichlids does not mean they are best for your fish. There are three kind of fish carnivours, omnivours and herbavours feed accordingly. |
| Plants Kept: |
Gravel, sand, river rock, volcanic rock, and fake plants. |

75 Gallon African Tank - Plastic Plants - Lace and River Rock - Who Needs TV When You Have One of These - Talk About a Big Screen!!! |
| Quote: |
If at First You Don't Succeed - Don't Look So Astonished! |
| About Yourself: |
I am a 40 year old father of 2 great children. Chelsea is 2 and Hunter is 4. My wife is great and is pretty patient with me when I take 5 hours on a Sunday to "work" on the tank. She's not really into the fish but I think she may be coming around - she loves to see the kids excited! My little ones love the fish and are great helpers. By day I am an operations manager for a fortune 100 company managing customer service operator working from home. We provide a full array of services for various clients. It's a stressful job but when I come home and spend a little time with my fish, the stress of the day goes away for awhile - heck I don't even hear my Blackberry which in itself is a true gift. |
| Advice: |
Start with the tank you really want - if you have space for 90 Gallon and that's what you want - Go For It. Moving from a 10 to a 30 to a 55 and so on will cost you more than just getting what you want from the beginning. Take your time selecting fish and be patient if you go with cichlids. To me the best part of the hobby is watching them mature and change colors over time. It's amazing how a brown dull young peacock can be so beautiful when it matures. Change your filters regularly, do routine water changes, feed them a good quality food and you will have happy and healthy fish. |
