Default Hi to all, (awsome forum)

Been lurking for about a week, love the forum. I've been fish keeping for about 33 years, started out with a 10 gallon, currently have a 220 gallon (progress). Always have had freshwater, looking forward to gaining, and sharing info and pics.

Thanks for the warm welcome to all, I'll be posting pics soon, and yes I have some real good stories to come. Bleaching the aquarium to clean silicone also weakens it, I found out the hard way, 220 gallons on my living room floor.

Looks like your average 10 gallon tank to me. It's got the special "real wave" maker installed though, of COURSE!

Thanks for all the comments, and welcomes.

Obsidian: 6 months is a great start, some get discouraged before that, keep it up


Ichitius: Hope you like the pics


buggy: sorry to say, i am an old vet at this, but theres always something to learn, or and my exterminator story is hilarious, my son calls me one day and says Pa, the fish are droping like flies. To be contd.

BV77 aka Bob: thanks for the welcome, see u in chat
