I am a web publisher in metro Atlanta GA USA. I am also a reborn fish guy, rekindling a hobby that I enjoyed while a teenager.
In a matter of about three weeks, I have gone from a nearly-forgotten single goldfish (named "Bait") in a neglected outdoor pond to five tanks ("Bait" now lives indoors). I have Corys, Rosy Barbs, Cherry Barbs, Head and Taillight Tetras, Black Skirt Tetras and assorted Platys (Red Tuxedo, Mickey Mouse) and Marigold Swordtails. I plan to add Clown Loaches and maybe some Danios, although my Platys are well on the way to increasing my fish population for me.
"Bait" now has three tankmates-- "Switch," "Tackle" and "Box."
All are happy, but none as happy as my local pet store and my credit card issuer.
I look forward to the knowledge that I am sure to gain from the experience of other forum contributors.
