Introduction

I started out with a ten gallon tank 8 months ago that I found at a yardsale and it has grown from there. After doing some reading I found that the ten gallon just wouldn't do, so I bought a 29 gallon tank and proceeded to set up a community tank. FishLore was my first stop at educating myself. Thank goodness for the Internet! Fish keeping has been a learning experience that has at times brought heartbreak when loosing fish and joy when it all comes together. The serenity that comes with this hobby is something that I will never give up on.
My Aquariums:
29 gallon tall community tank. Right now it is home to two small Discus and one German Blue Ram the sole survivor of the original three. I use an AquaClear 50 filter. 200 watt Visa Therm heater. Rena Air 200 air pump with a bubble wand. Natural pebble substrate with silk and plastic plants and a few river rocks. |
