Quote: Take that, Space Coyote!
About Yourself: I got into fish when I met my fiance, who had a betta and a white cloud minnow in a little plastic tank. I had never been big into fish - although I had kept and bred a lot of reptiles - but I convinced him to set up a 10 gallon tank for them. 10 gallons turned into 100 gallons, and here I am today. My 29 gallon is *my* tank, though, and it's coming together. I love this hobby!
