Hello Everyone!

Greetings. My name is Mike. I was referred to this site through Aquarium Co-Op as the owner runs this board. I'm fairly new to this hobby but have learned so very much. In the past year I have gone from a 1.5g Betta cube to a 55g planted. This hobby has always caught my interest but I never really dipped my feet in the water long enough. (pun intended)

I have 4 tanks up and running at the moment:

1.5g Betta bowl with a Blue Halfmoon

10g Sand substrate low tech planted Dwarf Puffer only tank. Had 3 DP's at the start but lost 2 of them to a really mean bugger. So I named him Lucifer. He is my favorite fish out of everyone since he has such a personality.

30g Gravel non co2, ferted, med/high light, medium planted community. 1 Albino Angel, 1 Pinoy Zebra Angel, 1 Golden Dojo, 1 Reg Dojo, 1 Khullie, 1 Seafoam Platty, 1 Otto, 1 Clown Pleco, 1 Black Ghost Knife, 1 Male Long Fin German Blue Ram, 1 Female Reg German Blue Ram, 2 Albino Cory cats.

55g (Just set this up a month ago. Planned for a medium/high planted tank w/ co2 and med/high lighting) Right now I have 2 reg Dojos, 1 Bichir, 1 Ranbow Shark, 2 Mollies, 1 Adonis (L155) Pleco. Stock will change eventually as some of my 30g fish will be swapped over here in a few months.

Currently however. I am battling Callamanus Worms in the 30g.   I should have some Levimisole for treatment soon. I hope I can battle this out and in a safe and timely manner.  

I look forward to being apart of this forum and community.

But it makes my eyes burn from not blinking. Plus ... it's scary.

I'll get some pictures up in a few days. Super busy this weekend and I have to trim some of my plants.
