There are lots of people on the avenue who keep fish. Im not sure who all they are, but I know they are there :D . I used to keep fish. I cant right now but as soon as I can again I will. I used to keep all kinds. I had reefs, planted fw, cichlids etc. I did everything :D

Wayne what type of fish are you moving into the 55 gal?

If I had a bigger house I would love to set up a tank or two.

I have two 10 gallon tanks setup now.(Heated and filtered)One with a king betta named,"Julius" and another 10 gallon divided for my two female bettas....amelia and starry.When I got julius he was knocking on heavens door.I wasn't sure he'd make it.
I love bettas they are like wet dogs with so much personality.:)

I always though that was a neat thing about the Oscars that they had such BIG personalities.

Once I had a wonderful Skat that allowed me to do that, I miss him still till this day.

I have 3 tanks. 1 29gal with Goldfish, 1 55 gal with my Cyclid Rosie and 1 125 gal containing saltwater fish, a panther Grouper, a pinktail trigger and a toadfish. I have a few feather dusters in there as well. We had a bunch more fish in there but when we moved we lost a few :(
