About Yourself:
My very first fish was when I was about 12, it was a goldfish I had and raised in a glass bowl with a metal bottom. The goldfish grew to about 8 inches then died. Never found out why, but as I got older I found out that metal is a bad thing for goldfish.

About Yourself:
I am a male singer/songwriter from central Scotland.I have a wife and 12 year old son who is also very interested in tropicals and has asked for his own tank to keep ONE arrowana!! (he probably will get one).
Fish Kept:
Community fishes _ angels,platys,guppies etc.
Corals/Plants:
A nice big artificial piece of coral that is very easy to keep and does not require special light.:).
Tank Size:
50 gallons
Advice:
Change adequate amount of water weekly or at least every ten or so days to keep your fishes healthy and happy.Do NOT overfeed as this adds to water problems.If you have fed your fishes and come home with that bag of live brine shrimp or bloodworm, it is tempting to feed straight away but put them away till its time to feed them again.

When starting out soak in all the info that you hear and combine it with your own judgement. Use valuable resources or you will waste alot of money, remember its a recession.it will take a while to figure out your own custom styles for your tanks so just be patient. Save all your supplies you never know when you will need them.

About Yourself:
I started off with a 30 gallon and was finally able to upgrade to a 55 gallon. I have been alot more creative with my second tank and truly enjoy it. It is my piece of art! The pic I have doesnt do it justice. It's hard to get a good picture of it without a glare. Tried different settings on my camera and that didn't help much.
I recently graduated college and am trying to find my niche in the professional world. Love my husband, been with him for seven years and he happily supports my fish hobby. He even comes shopping with me for all the "stuff" and doesn't complain about the money I have spent on it. LOL. :-)
Fish Kept:
2 blood parrots, 1 jack dempsey, 1 clown loach, 1 african cichlid, and 1 pacu red belly and I want MORE! Any advice I could get on breeding african cichlids would be great.
Corals/Plants:
Silk plants from Hobby Lobby, driftwood, granite, slate, and I dont know what else. lol.
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
Patience, gain knowledge, be creative, and have FUN! Also, water changes are VITAL if you want your tank to look nice.
