About Yourself:
I can say that I am crazy about fish and I haven't met to many people that share my enthusiasm. I like to know everything there is to know about what I have. I started with a half gallon tank years ago with some small minnows. Then upgraded to a 10 gallon tank which seemed like a big deal now I have a 180 gallon tank that weighs over 2,000 ponds.
Fish Kept:
In my 180 I have a Jardini Arowana, Polypterus Senegalus, 2 archer fish, South American mosaic gar (which is actually not a true gar), a large 14 inch chocolate pleco.
Corals/Plants:
Duck Weed
Tank Size:
180 gallons
Advice:
Start small with simple fish. Get to know everything there is to know about your setup to benefit the health of your tank and good form there.

Tank Size:
38 gallons
Advice:
Don't ever TRUST PETCO people! They don't know Sh*t! Bunch of dumb kids work there. One guy at the fish department told me it was okay to use the drops for alges, and fin rots and it killed 7 of my fish except for my betta he was the only one that survived....Do the research online on the fish before buying and don't listen to what the petco people say about what's the amount of drops to use, read it and put alittle less then what it tells you to put.
Description:
Discus
My 38 Gallon Aquarium, 3 Discus, 6 Tiger Barbs, 3 Chinese Algae Eaters, one Gold Nugget Pleco, and a Gold Chinese Algae Eater. I'm using a Marineland C-Series Multi Stage Canister Filter C-220, the best fiter out there. I personaly think this filter is better then the Eheim, because it allows no bypass, it forces the water through the filter media trays and not around them, all the other canisters allow 40% to 60%.

About Yourself:
I'm a Marine Veteran that worked as an Avionics technician. Now a government employee doing the same type of work. I've always had a love for animals, and try to instill that same love into my kidos. By far my favorite thing to do is going snorkeling in the clear waters of the Caribbean. Watching all the colorful fish, and other aquatic life. So I thought a couple (or maybe more) fish tanks could bring some of that fun into the house. So here I am now with 4 tanks ranging in size from 5gal to 125gal. I stock my tanks mostly with various types of cichlids, but with a few other oddballs too. They are loved just as much as our two dogs, a rabbit, and sugar glider. People love stopping by and checking out our tiny zoo of animals. Especially the neighborhood kids.
Fish Kept:
Jack Dempsey, Bumblebee Cichlid, Peacock Cichlid, Sailfin Pleco (L-83), Columbian Shark, Frontosa Cichlid, Rope Fish, Senegal Bichir
Corals/Plants:
Artificial plants. Artificial coral formations/caves.
Tank Size:
50 gallons
Advice:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems everyone that gets into this hobby & really enjoys it want a bigger & bigger tank. So start with a small 10-20gal tank, & if you can keep your water nice & clear & your fish happy & healthy for a year & you thoroughly enjoyed learning the do's & dont's & you often find yourself just sitting in front of the tank just watching how your fish act, learning their body language, & knowing weather they're happy or not. Then I suggest skipping the 30, 50, 75, etc... & go BIG! As big as your wallet will allow. This way you save on all the stuff you need for a new tank every time you go a little bigger. Go for gold, you'll wish you had more space if you don't. This is what I wish someone had told me when I started. In reality I should probably just go get a job at the aquarium. That's the only size tanks I'd truly be happy with, lol! Good luck & enjoy.
