My Cichlid Sanctuary. |
| 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. |

My 28 gallon freshwater tank up close. Black substrate, dense artificial plants, large artificial driftwood, two Penguin 150's, Marineland heater. The fish are mostly hiding, but there are 2 male Swordtails, 4 Fancy male Guppies, and 3 Black Neon Tetras. |

Is that a dorsal fin I see behind you? |
| About Yourself: |
I live in Southern California and am a psychotherapist. I'm passionate about animal welfare, 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.
20 gallon tank: My Q tank. It currently has 3 young Zebra Danios preparing for the 36 gallon tank. Will get 3 more of them in a few days to make a nice school.
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. |
