Hi! I'm Sadie from East Texas. I've been carring around all these tanks and unable to set them up untill about 6 months ago. and I've had a few trials and tribulations since...
My number of fish are steadily growing as I sucumb to the obsession. I'm trying to hold back at setting up more tanks since I'll be moving in a couple of months...but I just cant help myself...lol
I have 4 hermit crabs not including the one that escaped...he is somewhere in the house I'm sure. It was my fault, I placed the new net to close tot he top of the tank....We'll see if I find him when I move next month.
Big green -escapee
wasabee-3 years old
dot- 2 years old-
the twins- unknown age, have had them about a year.
fred the betta is currently in a fish bowl about to be moved to a nano tank 1.5 gallons with a nano HOB filter, it is currently cycling.
18 gallon tall with artificial plants and undergravel filter houses 3 zebra danios i use for cycling and 3 opalecent gouramis, its been set up for 6 months and doing well.
The trails came when I aquired clyde the convict cichlid, I had never had a cichlid before but always wanted some, he has been a pain and a delight. he is currently in a 10 gallon and is 3 inches long, he will be moved to the 40 gallon once I move. I thought I'd go ahead and get him some dithers. this turned out to be a disaster when i added 3 med tiger barbs, he has nearly scared one of them to death already and i imediatly had to devid the tank (luckily bought the tank divider when i baught them. So this isnt going to work, set up another oceanic 10 gal I had inthe closet and i'm waiting for the temp to reach soemthign resonable before moving them over. Its a risk with it being an uncycled tank but I have no choice, they cant continue living in 3 inches of water
i have a couple more tanks i'm gonna set up when I get the chance, hopefully one of them will be planted, and I'm always on the lookout for more tanks...i am the master of carage sales and dumpster diving...so many people throw tanks away...
so thats the tanks
I'm 28 and am currently a waitress. other then fish I like plants and reading...i'm a huge geek,
nice to meet ya'll
