Hello From Catonsville Baltimore Area

:rolleyes: Hi! My name is Marge Collins. I have been dabbling in fishkeeping as a hobby since I was 5. My first tank was a handmade steel and glass tank. It's size was determined by the length of the building materials. Guess it must have been around 70 gallons. My brother and sisters and I put all sorts of living things in it over the years. The one fish that lived through it all was a steel gray catfish we named 'Oscar'. Kissing gouramis, angelfish, tadpoles, minnows, catfish, guppies, frogs, turtles... you get the picture. I still have that original tank at my parents' house in Minnesota.

My main interest in fishkeeping at the moment is variety. I have a Central America cichlid tank, an African Lake Malawi cichlid tank, a planted community tank, and a stone gravel 'active' tank. (The last is really a catch all tank housing an assortment of daneos, catfish, convicts, and loaches. Don't know why they all get along but they do.)

I'd like to see more new members join the club and am making an effort to invite friends and neighbors from my Catonsville and Baltimore area to the CCA meeting in June.

:rolleyes: Hi! The malawi tank is 29 gallons. The Central Am tank is 75 gallons. I really prefer the larger tanks!
