Hello everyone,
Just got back into the fishtanks so
Still looking for the perfect tank. Creepyoldguy
Had a nice one but I was late.
I raised all types of arowans from Asian
Silver, black, and aussi, dam all the way back
In 1990!
I also had parrot fish back then, the were expensive and new. It was great growing up in Brooklyn. The Asian petshops were and still Are awesome! I might do Discus but don't know if I want that Much work right from jump. So slow and steady wins the race.

Welcome to the club! Don't be afraid of Discus, they're a lot easier than they are made out to be, and one of the best sources for Discus is in the Baltimore area... Discus Hans.

No, its that with a new baby on the way, and with tanks Im like a little kid.
I will be all over the tank and wify will get pist. So might raise a jardine:D
Talk about a tough fish!
I remember cleaning a tank in the early 90's and the arrow got out and behind the stove!!! When we managed to put it back after a serous rescue, that bad boy was eating that night like it was going out of style:eek: LOL

I like the plain tank look also, way easier to maintain.
