About Yourself: Physics major. I got into fishkeeping in 1994 with my first Shubunkin, kept in a fishbowl. After a year i got a plexiglas aquarium (no filtration) and within days i decided to go in for a bigger plexiglas with filtration, aeration and heating. Within a year i had upgraded to a 15-gallon glass tank, loaded with fancy goldfish (Orandas and Bubble-eyes). I then swithced to Anabantidae. I succesfully kept Dwarf and Pearl Gouramis (Colisa Lalia and Trichogaster Leeri) for years. In 2005 i got my present tank and have switched to keeping new-world cichlids exclusively ever since.
Fish Kept: 1 Glyptopericthys Joselimaianus (Leopard Pleco) 4 Thoricthys Meeki (Firemouth)
Corals/Plants: No Corals or Live Plants
Tank Size: 36 gallons
Advice: There is ONLY 1 way to success: AMMONIA CYCLING

Advice: Always select your tank after selecting your fish to avoid any size issues. Also, check compatability before buying, sometimes vendors do cheat to make more sales and your fishes end up nipping and chasing each other.
