Fish Fanatic
Hail and well met, fellow icthyphiles.
This year I have returned to the hobby after a 25 year hiatus, and the aquarium bug seems to have bitten but good.
My tanks:
75 gallon - Eastern Painted Turtle, Banjo Catfish, Bulldog Pleco, Feeder Guppies. (Temporary home for a turtle my little girls brought home from their grandparents' lake. It'll go back there next summer and this turns into an angelfish tank.)
55 gallon - 1 Male Pearl Gourami, 12 Harlequin Rasboras, 8 Cherry Barbs, 5 Striped Loaches, 5 Kuhli Loaches, and 2 Bristlenosed Plecos. Heavily Planted (Wisteria, Java Ferns and Moss, Rotala, Anubias Nana, Crypts)
20 Gallon High - 1 Clown Pleco, 1 Bristlenosed Pleco, 5 Black Neons, 6 Glowlights, 4 Sterba's Corys, 1 Leopard Cory. Heavily Planted (Swords, Cabomba, Pennywort, Dwarf Hairgrass).
20 Gallon High - Currently Vacant but for water, snails, and a java fern that I am trying to get the algae off of.
10 Gallon - Fancy Guppies
10 Gallon - Fancy Guppy fry and pond snails
Idle Tanks - 46 bowfront (Going to build a community around something that eats guppy fry), 40 Flat Back Hex (this is getting Mollies, Neons, Otos, and Corys. Planting will be very hairgrass intensive . Filteration to set up a fair current.)
Someday, I hope to get good enough at this that I can get a big enough tank for a school of Silver Arowanas.
