Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

MTS IS Hereditary

My daughter and I were at Petco this afternoon. She fell in LOVE with this beautiful little betta boy. We went from Petco to the house, then off to Wal-Mart and he's now in his own 5 gallon aquarium a corner away from Dracula (our other betta). Pics are coming soon-he's like a magenta, blue, and white, but with her camera, he's coming out blue so I need my brother's camera. It might be a month before I can show him to everyone.

I already gave her my 20 gallon to stock as she saw fit (she's got neons, guppies, a clown pleco AND SHE STOLE ONE OF MY BOLIVIAN RAMS)

I have two other new arrivals to announce:

I got my convict today-he's showing kinda yellow on camera (don't know why), so I may get my brother's camera for him as well. Looking for a name-any suggestions?

Also, I finished stocking one of my 29 gallons today with an angelfish. I'll be updating my aquarium info to show this. I'm trying to figure out a name for him as well. He's dodging the camera (kinda shy) so I'll get a pic of him once he's acclimated.

That brings us up to a total of six tanks. Oops. MTS has run rampant in this house.

I'm teaching my daughter how to use the test kit (she's 11) so she can do her own tests on her two aquariums. That way, I'll only be responsible for four.

Thought you guys might enjoy the story share
