About Yourself:
I had a fish tank when I was a wee child but left the heater on overnight and killed all my fish. I was devastated. My hubby and I after raising our daughter decided to adopt two older siblings. To help teach them about responsibility my son got a betta to care for (and my daughter a parakeet). I fell in love with this hobby!! A neighbor was moving and had a 55 gal with stand and all equipment and wanted to give it away. No one else wanted it so I thought sure I'll try it with a big tank! We all LOVE it! It is so peaceful to come home to or when one is not feeling well to just sit and watch the fish. I work as a medical social worker for oncology which can be emotionally draining and so I really enjoy the calmness of the tank. We have also really enjoyed raising fry when we can. The on swordfish I have in my 55 is one of our babies. They didn't usually live in tank as my angel (who has passed on) used to eat them and I think the gourami did too. The kribs are awesome parents and have been fun to watch them protect the fry even with the divider in the tank!
Fish Kept:
In my 15 tall at work, I have 8 neon tetras, one angel, 2 cories, 2 dwarf pleco. In my 55 I have my surviving male krib, 1 angel, 3 cories, 3 otos, 9 black neons, 3 rasboras, 7 bloodfin tetras, 3 bosemani rainbows, 3 hatchets. I have no fish in my 90 yet as it is a project which I was turned on to looking at your site one day and the African cichlid tanks were #1, and #4. Cool fish! I have just finished my BG and installed 90% in my 90 so we are getting closer. I also have an 18 tall with about 30 baby kribs in it.
Corals/Plants:
My 55 is now a planted tank -see description, my 15 and 18 just have plastic plants in them. My 90 will have real plants too.
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
Research, research and research some more as I have know way too many people who mix the wrong fish together or don't cycle their tanks and wonder why all their fish died...

About Yourself:
I bought my first 5 gal tank 30 years ago. All my fish died because I wasn't told about the bactierial cycle. After going 20 years without a tank I decided to do it up good!
Fish Kept:
5 red irian rainbows,
5 red line torpedo barbs,
3 white cloud moutain minnows,
6 jumbo neons,
5 pearl gourami,
5 clown loaches,
3 panda garra,
3 panda corydoras,
7 silver hatchets,
2 silver angels,
Corals/Plants:
The plants are all plastic but the cool brown & green algae on the background is real.
Tank Size:
168 gallons
Advice:
Get the biggest tank you can buy. Don't clean your filter too much. Enjoy your fish - study about them and where they are from. If you can't afford good stuff - save your money until you can.
Description:
The best algae eaters ever! Panda Garras never stop, even at night. They don't hang in the same place on the glass all day like plecos. Plus they will never outgrow your tank.

About Yourself:
I'm a college grade looking for a teaching job who works to pay the bills. I've been doing the fish thing for about 3 1/2 years now and I love it and will never stop this hobby.
Fish Kept:
4 inch silver arowana,1-7 inch Pleco, crayfish, bumblebee catfish, firemouth, and 2 angel fish that I'm caring for while my sis gets her new tank cuz her other one broke. All fish are small and will be moved to my 125 when bigger. Ive kept every fish possible so if ya need help let me know...
Corals/Plants:
Plastic plants
Tank Size:
75 gallons
Advice:
Know what you want when it comes to fish. The bigger they get the more its going to cost as far as the size tank, filtration, and food. I did that and got tired of it. Start slow so you dont get yourself in trouble. Enjoy every second you get to watch your fish.
