Fish Kept:
Yellow Tang, Diamond Goby, Lawnmower Blenny, Pair of percs
Inverts: Coral Banded and Cleaner Shrimp
Corals/Plants:
Small Pink button polyps, large red/green Zoo's, large rock of Green Star Polyps, few hammer frags
Tank Size:
36 gallons
Advice:
Read, Read, Read! I read up on the hobby for almost a year before buying anything. Patience. Easier to think your going to be patient than actually BEING patient. Take everything with a grain of salt. This is a very opinionated hobby. Save up a lot of money because you will need it. Learn what each piece of equipment does, and what it's purpose is. Study fish compatibility. Design your tank for YOU, not for what someone else tells you to do. Keep your fish happy.

For now I'm working at a Mental Health Clinic until I get my certification. Any Q's, just hit me up with an email.
Fish Kept:
Coral Beauty Angel, PearlScale Butterfly, Cleaner Shrimp, Fire Shrimp, Royal Gramma, Blue Damsel, Yellow Damsel, Domino Damsel, Blue Fin Damsel, FireFish, Yellow Tang, Clownfish, Chocolate Chip Starfish, Red Phil Crab, Hermit Crabs
Corals/Plants:
No corals yet, just Condi Anemone
Tank Size:
75 gallons
Advice:
If you are to start a tank, I would recommend get the biggest you can afford. Within a year, you will be killing yourself for not buying bigger. Trust, I have gone through a bigger new tank each year, and yet my tank still isnt big enough for me. A 75 or 125gal would be ideal to start for salt. :) Good Luck!

"Why worry about making it through today when its already tomorrow somewhere else..."
About Yourself:
I have always loved animals, and fish are just so fascinating to me! My tanks just keep getting larger and larger and my fish population grows with the tank size :] I am currently not working due to being an expectant mother..
Fish Kept:
Plecos, Catfish, Bumble Bees, Guppies, Mollies, Bettas, Tetras, Snails, African Dwarf Frogs.... and of course our 8 baby guppies and mollies! (when our 45 gallon is set up they're getting their own 20 gallon tank)
In 2005 I started out with one betta fish in a 2.5 gallon tank. Then I added my first pleco who was about two inches long. Once my pleco started to grow I got a 10 gallon tank for him (Spot) and the betta fish (Mr. Fishy). Now, in the fall of 2008, Spot is in one of my two 20 gallon tanks (7.5 inches long & 2 inches wide) with an arrangement of other fish, but Mr. Fishy is no longer as of this past summer. My fiance loves plecos and any other type of large algea eater. We currently have 4, ranging from 3 inches long to about 9 inches long. Personally I love watching our froggies swim around the tank :]
Corals/Plants:
I typically buy whatever potted plants I can find that best fit my tanks from PETCO. Although these seem like fake names I got them from the PETCO website to make sure they are correct... I currently have some Amazon Swords, Anubias lanceolata, Hygrophila difformis, and another type I cant figure out the name of.
Tank Size:
20 gallons
Advice:
Always research a fish before you buy it, to see what temperature water you need, what to feed them, what size group you should keep them in (most fish do well in groups of 3 or more, typically odd numbers) and try not to over crowd your tank, or you will have the fish fighting each other for space (sometimes to the death).

About Yourself:
My husband and I have just gotten into keeping fish. I was against it at first and now the tables have turned. After getting the tank as a present, he has decided he doesn't really want to care for it. I have taken over and LOVE it. I'm anxious to learn more and to upgrade to HUGE tank after we move cause 55 gallions wont hold my three frontosa for long! :) Our 3 year old daughter loves looking at it and watching me feed the little guys. She's so obsessed I swear she'll become a marine biologist when she grows up. :)
Fish Kept:
1 6" fuellborni OB, 3 Frontosa (1 is like 8" and the other two are like 3"), 2 electric blues, 2 blood parrots, 1 acei, 1 kenyi, 1 yellow peacock, 2 common plecos, 1 albino sailfin pleco, 1 6" blue night lobster, and a few other randon malawaian cichlids.....
Corals/Plants:
all artificial plants for now.
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!!! Got 29 gallon for husband as a present a few months ago, and it wound up being my obsession and he never touches it. :)
