Hobby reptile keeper, houseplant enthusiast, and gluten-free nano fishkeeping.

Happy to talk about the following species I've kept, bred, or currently enjoy as pets: 

• Fish:
  • Japanese rice fish
  • Paleatus corydoras
  • Celestial Pearl Danios (See my post about the hybrids I found at my LFS)
  • Khuli loaches
  • Otocinclus
  • Betta fish
  • Pea puffers
• New Calendonian geckos (crested, gargoyle, chahoua, and leachie)
• Terrestrial geckos (african fat tail and leopard) 
• Cuban false chameleaons (aka Western bearded anoles or Anolis barbatus) 
• Arboreal skinks (emerald tree skinks, Solomon Island black tree skinks aka "black emo skinks" or Emoia Nigra)
• Snakes (rosy boa, kenyan sand boa, and corn)

Celiac/Gluten Free Fishkeeping
I almost left the hobby a year+ ago when I discovered my automimmune issues were flaring up badly whenever I put my hands in my fishtank, due to the amount of gluten I had been feeding them. It was overwhelming to try to breakdown and reconvert all my tanks -- so I said goodbye to all my fish except I couldn't break up with my little corydoras. I kept them, some shrimp, snails, and a single betta, and have slowly been rekindling my love for the hobby. 

Very interested in talking about non-gluten based fish foods and live cultures.
