Hey all names Anthony. I've been keeping fish for 15 years I've done it all eccept african cichlids. My biggest fish intrest is new world cichlids although planted aquaria are a close second. I have 430 gallons currently running, 190 gallon das system that houses a rainbow cichlid, green terror, 2 silver dollers, 15 swordtails, 2 sub adult female festea and a sveni pike, a 110 gallon that houses a jag, black belt, freddy, two firemouths, a nic, a sailfin pleco, and an L128 (green phantom). I have a 45 gallon grow out that has a juvie argentea, juvie bocourti, juvie bleekeri, and juvie fenestratus, I have a fowlr tank that has no residents, I have a 29 gallon tank that is built into the corner of a wall that is hevily planted and houses 3 amano shrim 12 cardinal tetras, two rummy nose tetras, 8 ember tetras and about 10 otto. I have a 10 gallon planted tank with a dwarf puffer and a big yellow snail. Nice to see a washington specific forum. And I'm happy to be a part of it.

We are very happy to have you, Anthony. 430 gallons??! COOL! Also, your fish list is very cool, too!

Oops missed a tank I also have a 20 gallon guppy feeder breeder. So that puts my gallon count at 450. This tank is soo easy I do a water change every month and feed twice a week. I useually pull about 5 or 6 guppys a week and give them to my cichlids as a treat.
