Bottomfeedeer Small Fry Posts: 1 Kudos: 0 Votes: 0 Registered: 28-Oct-2008 | Hi guys. I'm new here. I'm gonna be 13 in 2 weeks. I'm just starting out with fish. My current stock is kinda sad, my parents have froze my fish tank buying as it is: 5 gallon with 2 female Gambusia affins (one pregnant) and an unidentified cleaner Pond Snail and a 5.5 gallon with 5 Orange White Clouds and some kind of Trapdoor Snail. I hope to expand soon. I'm relatively new to fishkeeping but not to fish. And I'm from Brooklyn New York. I meant to make my screenname "Bottomfeeder, but they make the R and the E and the D on the keyboard so darn close |

Don't be afraid to ask questions we all had to learn, there is no such thing as a silly question. If you could fill in your Profile a little where you are would be a start. Happy birthday in two weeks time wow 13 I can hardly remember that far back. I also have a birthday coming up just under 4 weeks 71yld. Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do. I VOTE DO YOU if not WHY NOT? VOTE NOW VOTE NOW |

Bottomfeedeer Small Fry Posts: 1 Kudos: 0 Votes: 0 Registered: 28-Oct-2008 | thanks for the welcome wagon guys! My parents used to set up my tanks when I was like 7 and I had Goldfish in a 5 gal (we even experimented with a Pangasius once, never listening to an LFS again) but i got so bent up when they died. so i stopped for a few years but my teacher got a snail in live pond culture for the science lab, ad that was incentive to start up again. i adopted him and im really into fishkeeping. i know my fish, ive loved em since i was, i think 2. i join lots of fish sites and even have a fish breeding video game. So basically I know alot about fish but just starting out in fishKEEPING. |
