mommygourami Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Hello, I have been in the hobby just shy of a year. I've had ups and downs but I attribute a lot of my success to watching copious amounts of YouTube and of course 75% I'm sure have been Aquarium Coop. I am not much of a social media person, but I figured if I am going to continue this hobby, I might as well try to get in the loop and on occasion, interact with humans. My youtube addiction followed shortly with Multiple Tank Sydrome and collector-itis. I currently have 7 tanks with fish: 55 gallon 20 gallon 29 gallon x2 10 gal x2 5 gallon Stocking in my tanks : Black emperor tetras Black phantom tetras Rummynose tetras Boesmani rainbows Albino corydoras Panda corys Pygmy corys Brochis Emerald green corys Japanese trap door snails Amano shrimp Honey gouramis 1 female apistogramma panduro Otocinclus Panda garras Myers hillstream loaches Adf's Gray kuhli loaches OG single Petco Guppy OG single teacup platy A few glo danios for my son's tank Miscellaneous uninvited snails My 5 gallon was my QT, but I ended up with some Taiwanese green and orange swordtail guppies and several of their fry, so they are in there for now. They are impossible to photograph, they're so fast! My honey gouramis laid eggs but only 2 fry survived. I tried to photograph them. They were born months ago but are still very small. Plans for the future... 1. My 20 gallon used to look a lot better but it kind of got destroyed when the honey gouramis forced me to break it up and try my best at a nursery (the one with the pyramid) I plan to re-do it and make it into a cool cherry shrimp abode, now that it should be well seasoned. 2. Relocate the Taiwanese guppies out of QT 3. New desired tank setups: single betta tank and single pea puffer tank. Anyway, please excuse the messy tanks and algae on the glass, but here are some pics. I'm excited to be here and "meet" everyone. 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's funny. Before my fish addiction, I would never have expected I would be shelling out big bucks to buy wood on the internet. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just joined my local club and went to my first meeting. It kind of felt like group therapy, but I dunno if it helps that I ended up buying plants and fish at the auction! 🤭 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
