New old freshwater aquarium guy.

Just now seriously and earnestly re-entering the hobby after a lengthy hiatus. Retired now and have the time. Started out with guppies in fourth grade and have cared for and raised various cichlids large and small, bettas, guppies, swordtails, and gouramis. Seeing my rams spawn and care for their fry was the highlight of my experience. Never fed much live food so I want to do that now and see the promised results of big healthy fish.

I know that you all realize that tropical fish are a great hobby. You get to see amazing life processes and be a sort of scientist in your own right. Please remember to stop at least once a day and just empty your mind of all thoughts and watch the fish. It's all about the fish.
