"respect my authoritae!" South Park |
| About Yourself: |
My father is a geology professor who helped origonate the idea of plate techtonics, my stepmother is a marine biologist who introduced me to freshwater fishtanks when she was studying crayfish behavior(she was far from the sea as we moved to Ithaca NY when I was ten). I used to raise fish I caught in the local streams and ponds. I buried flat rocks in the front corners of my tank and watched as the crayfish created their burrows, and then I was able to watch them as I had set it up so I would be able to see into their homes. I would return fish and crayfish to the stream when I went away for trips and when they got too big. I'm a respiratory therapist, I have an eight year old son, and we're both into fishtanks and N-scale trains. |
| Advice: |
Try live plants and make sure you have adequate lighting, and over-do the biological filtration. You will need to clean less often and you'll have a more stable ecosystem. |
| Fish Kept: |
14 inch arawana, 3 8-10 inch Florida spotted gars, 2 eight inch hydro gars, 2 7 inch weather loaches, 1 6 inch talapia. |
| Plants Kept: |
Large, medium, and small anubias, java fern, java moss, Amazon sword, and a few kinds of other medium to small nice plants. |
| Tank Size: |
100 |
| Description: |
100 gal planted freshwater tank with two large powerheads running undergravel filter, two canister filters with max 275 gal combined capacity, and four 65 watt VHO flourescents run 8-10 hours per day. Soil is a mix of mediums averaging about four inches deep. There is a moderate current that provides excercise for fish and circulation for the plants. |

i kept fish years ago,but as a teenager there was other things more important,I got back into it a few years back,and now truly addicted to it,much to my wifes displeasure, I repair Automatic Transmissions for a living,which pays quite well to satisfy my fishkeeping addiction and keep the wife happy,,, |
| Advice: |
Do your homework on everything you are wanting to get and don,t impulse buy as we have all done it and it usually ends in tears,have plenty space for tanks as it,s an addictive hobby and you will always want more, |
