About Yourself:
it all started with a 5 gallon someone left at my house. Then a friend gave me a baby Red Devil without telling me they are monsters. I quickly went through a 10 gallon, into a 20, then traded him in for some Malawi cichlids. I added a 40G with baby snapping turtles, and then added the 125G. I sold it all, and now have a perfect 75G that will be for Tangs only.
Fish Kept:
currently cycling. In the past, I have bred Red Top Zebras; kept snapper turtles, Red Eared Sliders, Malawi cichlids, striped raphel, plecs, convicts, Peacock Bass,
