About Yourself:
50 yr. old male. Retired/disabled truck driver. Been into the hobby off and on for about 25 yrs. Some really nice set-ups here. I got a lot of good ideas for my tank.
Fish Kept:
Convicts, Australian Rainbows, 2 Jack Dempseys, Black Skirt Tetras, Texas Cichlids, Striped Raphael Catfish and 1 unknown Cichlid. I know I have too many fish, but my old tank started leaking and I only had the cash for this tank! Planning on getting at least a 75gal. tank in the near future.
Corals/Plants:
Fake plants. Sandstone and slate from landscape supply.
Tank Size:
45 gallons
Advice:
Get as large a tank as you can afford because you'll just end up getting a bigger one later. I get alot of my equipment (filters, air pumps etc.) from garage sales. I paid less than $30.00 for my filters! Also, things like decorative rock and substrate can be purchased at landscape supply for very cheap. I also saved quite a bit of cash by making my stand and hood myself.
Description:
45gal tall, sandstone rock structure, crushed granite substrate($10 for 80 pounds at landscape supply), Undergravel jets for good water movement. Way too many fish in tank, overrun w/baby Convicts! I have a massive amount of filtration so my PH, Ammonia levels etc. are always good. If anybody can tell me what the big fish at the left side of the tank is, i'd really like any opinions!

About Yourself:
I had a few aquariums when I was younger. But it was over 6 years ago. Last christmas we (me and my wife) got goldfish from my wife parents. We were not preper for it so fish died after one day (to small tank wich was originally for beta, mom didn't know that). Than I decided to statrt once again and I bought bigger tank (5 USG). I have there 3 goldfishes now and they are doing fine. Two months ago I found old 16 USG tank wich someone put on the sidewalk, I cleaned it resealed bought new equipment and plants. Month ago I put first fishes. Now I have "second TV" in my living room:-). I'm going to set up bigger tank in the future
