Default Spreading the Addiction

Well got my "in-laws" a 29 gallon tank for christmas. I hope they really like it since they always check out mine when they come over, and her dad always makes jokes about frying up my piranha. Wish me luck!

My boss knows about my addiction and has recently become interested as well. He wants me to help him purchase and set up a 20g tank for his daughter and grandkids.

Arowana is suppost to be tasty.

In the last 3 years or so ive inspired and helped start 9 different tanks with 7 new fish people. I think they see the passion i put into the hobby and it kinda rubs off.
