Rosi Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) Hello, Friends!ย My name is Rosi (pronounced "Rosie") and I am living in Aurora, CO. I am new to the fish keeping hobby as of a couple of months ago, but my sister and I kept a ton of fish and would breed guppies as kids. - Really, they bred themselves, but we provided them with a nice habitat ๐ -ย I'm currently only keeping a 20 gallon tank with one male Half-moon Betta, two Otocinclus', and two Nerite snails. I plan to add a small school of Neon Tetras in the future.ย My tank has several live plants and a large rock and piece of driftwood.ย Any advice you have for me as a newer hobbiest would be great. I'm here to learn and to provide my own experiences as I go.ย I'm originally from Rockford, IL so my fish and snails are named after Chicago Bears players. ๐ป๐งก๐ So nice to meet you all!ย -Rosiย (Please forgive the pink hue of my images. That's the whitest light my tank came with.) Edited January 22 by Rosi 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosi Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 @mountaintoppufferkeeperย very cool! I honestly had no idea that there were fresh water puffer fish! I love this beautiful state. So much to learn about the wildlife here, too. ๐ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schuyler Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Welcome! Aurora is a great area. I lived just south in Parker for a while. My advice would be to take all advice with a grain of salt. Most people online have their "thing" that they're into and then they know a lot less about other areas. Also, find a local aquarium club. If you're getting more into the hobby a club is a great way to network, learn from others nearby, and find good deals or rare fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
