Hi all! I'm Mari. I live in west Texas. I got my first aquarium when I was ten, a little 2.5 gallon desktop jobbie that were so hot back then. I had at least one and sometimes as many as three aquariums running constantly for the next 8 years. Took a decade long hiatus from fish-keeping, and decided a year ago to get back to a hobby that I loved. Things have changes so much that I feel like a n00b again, so I've been looking around for a good community for aquariasts and here I am. Look forward to getting to know everyone and participating in the community!
