Copper Ridge Life Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 We're saying hello from the Knoxville TN area! There are 6 tanks with fish and water in our house at the moment with various plants and fish ranging from 29 to 2.5 gallons. Some are display and others are for quarantine purposes. Much love to the coop and community! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flumpweesel Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Hello, glad about you keeping the water and fish sounds like a great recipe for success. 3 of my tanks are without water and although the maintenance is easy they are pretty dull.

Copper Ridge Life Posted November 20, 2021 Author Share Posted November 20, 2021 😂 I should have mentioned I have a couple empty tanks in the works as well if that comment was confusing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copper Ridge Life Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 This is my 29 community with cherry barbs( my favorites), white clouds, a honey gourami, and a bristlenose pleco. I will find some other pics too. This just a recent one. They aren't fancy; I often have some algae, but they're fun and I'm learning as I go. 😅 I have a 5g heterandria formosa tank that I absolutely love. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copper Ridge Life Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 This is my daughter's little 5g betta tank that I help her care for. Its been up about a year and also has some algae but Celestia is sassy and probably wouldn't tolerate much of a clean up crew so I haven't tried. I'm not really great at fertilizing, so my plants pout a little bit too. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copper Ridge Life Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 5g portrait with heterandria formosa that has been super fun and easy to maintain. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 @Copper Ridge Life; Welcome to the forum. I've been through Knoxville lots of times, the only time I've ever stopped was when I was very young, when Rte.11 was a main road through the area, way before I-75 went through. I've got relatives in Blountville and a lot of relatives in Grayson County, VA, and one year I fished for White bass in the Holston River at Rogersville. I haven't been in that area since 1969 so I'm sure a lot has changed, but I did like the area back then. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much love to the coop and community! I used to live in East TN myself, Kingsport area. Life has sense taken me to Seattle and now I get to visit Aquarium Co-op locally, so definitely not complaining! I do miss East TN though, such a pretty place to live! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small world..., my husband works in the Kingsport area, and we lived in Kitsap County in Washington for about 10 years when my husband was a submariner but that was 12 years ago. We would love to visit the PNW again and see the Coop. I am very blessed to have two great fish stores within a hour or so. Edited November 23, 2021 by Copper Ridge Life I mentioned a local fish store to me. Not sure of how this applies to the rules. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindabee53 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Welcome! I like your tanks. My brother was stationed in Bremerton several years ago - loved visiting him. My dad was a submariner back in the days of the diesel subs. You're in a gorgeous part of the country now. Before being exiled to Texas, I was in western NC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
