Those were the strong ones that survived the cycle until I found fishprofiles to guide me in the correct direction. Yay! Critical Fertilator: The Micromanager of Macronutrients

T/A Mega Fish Posts: 942 Kudos: 1796 Registered: 20-Feb-2004	My first fish was a male Betta. Of course my first experience with fish keeping was when my parents bought a 10 gallon. About 7 common goldfish and 1 Cory were tourtured in that tank. That's why I learned as much as I could before getting my own fish. I didn't want to see more fish die like that.

ReikoX Hobbyist Posts: 71 Kudos: 306 Votes: 14 Registered: 29-Jun-2004	First fish were platies and an angelfish in my 55G. That was a little over three months ago. I all but one of the platies to the cycle and the angel to camallanus. That Angel has infected my whole tank and has been causing me quite a few headaches.
