Long time fish person, but new to the forum.
I've had all kinds of weird critters growing up, from betta fish, iguanas and snapping turtles to the more cuddly quails, budgies and ferrets.
I've loved animals my whole life but fish/aquatic critters have a special spot in my heart. I always wanted to keep some of the weirdest little fish just because they're so fascinating and strange, the black ghost knife is my current goal fish. I am waiting for the feeling of being ready to care for, and keep happy, and maybe breed them one day. But for now I'll stick to my gupp-mutts๐Ÿ˜„
I am only currently doing freshwater so let me know if I'm in the wrong place, and I will gladly only lurk๐Ÿ˜†
I am currently breeding guppy-endler mixes and Neocaridina shrimp. Though I would never call myself a professional, I am getting fairly savvy at understanding these cool little water critters.
I hope to own my own shop one day and become a, mostly full time fish and shrimp breeder, but for now I'll stay at my 9-5 overnight job and patiently wait.
Hope you all have a wonderful night, happy fish keeping, and remember to keep it shrimple๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฆ
Here are a few quick pics/videos of my critters!
Also please forgive me if I use the page incorrectly, I'm used to social media and have recently wanted to get away from it, but I have never used a forum page before, I will continue to educate myself on forum etiquette ๐Ÿ‘

Funny I got the blue dreams and I'm breeding towards the lighter blue blues! It's crazy, especially with the blues, how you can get so many different things out of one little color line! Good luck, Shrimpin' ain't Easy ๐Ÿ˜Ž
 
Yes we do :)
