About Yourself:
My name is Michael Johnson and I live in Sunny Orange County California. I'm a recent graduate of the University of California Irvine with a BA in Economics, and plan on further study in accounting. I currently do not have a job, but I suppose this gives me more time to spend on my aquariums! I got into aquascaping, I guess through my brother the biologist, who is really into tropical plants. Growing up I've always loved nature, and an aquarium is a good way to create a mini habitat that will beautify your home. There is a certain feeling a joy and accomplishment when you work so hard to establish a functioning micro-ecosystem and everything works together. I think more people should get into the aquarium hobby because it will cause us to appreciate nature on a new level, and to perhaps move towards generations that care about the planet and the inevitable global warming predicament.
Goal for the future: set up a 155 gallon reef tank
Fish Kept:
Fish: A pair of Fundulopanchax Gardneri (Killifish), Four Macrotocinclus affinis (Oto Cat), Two Corydoras paleatus (peppered Cory Cat)
Corals/Plants:
Plants: My tank is mostly made up of microsorum pteropus and other types of java fern, grown on drift wood. Other plants are; Vesicularia dubyana or Java Moss(grown on drift wood), Acorus variegatus or Dwarf Green Acorus (Japanese Fan Grass), Riccia fluitas (Riccia) aka Crystalwort, Pelia (grown on drift wood), Cryptocoryne x willisii or Nevillii Crypt, Anubias nana or Dwarf Anubias, Echinodorus x Ozelot or Ozelot sword plant which is a hybrid between Echinodorus schlueteri 'Leopard' and Echinodorus barthii, Myriophyllum pinnatum or Myrio Green, Rotala macranda or Rotala Magenta (turns red with iron in the water), Ceratopteris thalictroides or Water Sprite aka Indian fern (also called water fairy), and lastly Vesicularia montagnei or Christmas Moss (which is one of my favorites because it is bright green in color)
Tank Size:
25 gallons
Advice:
Number one rule is to never give up. I would recommend doing your research and planning first before any water goes into the tank such as; location of the tank (not a sunny room), size of tank, what kind of fish/plants/coral you want to keep. Look at the forums on this site!

Patience really is a vertue when it comes to fish keeping, don't rush anything as more likely than not you will regret it later on. Never buy something on impulse, do the homework first :)

About Yourself:
Lets see I'm a Leo born in the year of the bunny. I like most people until they prove me wrong. I am currently on the verge of becoming a renaissance man. I invest in both stocks and real estate, I go to school for Hotel Management, And I work alot as a bartender. I work hard and play harder, on top of all that I still look good. I enjoy going to clubs/dancing, skiing, working out, reading, and making music. I'm a big time music junkie, I use to dance professionally and still do sometimes, for me it's a spiritual high. My traits include but are not limited to: charming, suave, thoughtful, graceful, creative, intuitive, intelligent, cultured, open minded, magnanimous, generous, spontaneous, outgoing, honest, caring, strong mined, out spoken, arrogant, conceited, cocky, disdain, vulgar, egotistical, obstinent, and spendthrift.
Fish Kept:
I have a total of 22 fish. 9 baby kirbenses, 4 angle fish, 2 cherry shrimp, 2 sun catfish, 4 mollies (1 of them is a boy), and 1 boy Betta fish. I didn't name my kirbenses as they all look alike, but my angle fish are Micheal, Gabreal, Rapheal, and Ureal. My smaller cat fish is Sven, and my big catfish is Ceasar. My mollie are Horus, Aphrodite, Isis, and Mystery. My betta's name is Posidon. My two cherry shrimp's names are Cheif, and Picasso.
Corals/Plants:
I don't know what their called to be honest.
Tank Size:
10 gallons
Advice:
Don't go to the pet shop and try to pinch a penny, or you'll end up with something cheap. Fish tank's are not also a science but also a great deal of fun. especially decorating them. and also it's ok to think out side the box when doing so. just make sure your fish all get along, and spoil them with food regularly. they say betta fish are best kept alone, and that's not entirely true. in my experience, most bettas do fine with most fish if they have space for themselves. just get have at least a 5 gallon tank.
