Hi all, I have a poll for you guys/gals. What kinds of
fish/plant/invert's do you have?


At the moment, 11 Monos (Monodactylus argenteus) and too many Julies
(Julidochromis regani) are my two species tanks (along with a bushynose
and a few botia).

How manny and what size tanks do you have?

I'm not really sure as most are in storage or various stages of work.
I'm sure I have a 120g (current project), 66g (with fish), 60g (empty
drilled tri-20 tank, to repair), 50g (empty, drilled, open plant tank, to
repair), 40g (with fish) and then some 30 and 20g in storage. I try to
keep under 8 tanks.

how long have you been keeping fish?

1969 (?), visited a family friend who had a 'huge' tank (probably just a
55g, but I was only 11 years old ;~) filled with fancy Guppies. He was a
doctor and talked with such an enthusiasm about the technical &
behavioural nuances, that I got 'hooked'. I've kept fish on & off since
then, and worked in pet shops when I was about 13 (for store credits in
fish supplies) and later managed 3 fish depts for a couple of years
(semi-retirement/hobby ;~).

Do you have a favorit fish, Why?

Probably too many favourites to list and for different reasons, but I'll
try ..for action, Monos ..for entertainment, Clowns ..for suspense, mbuna
...for genuflection, Discus ..for loud company, Oscars ..for quiet
company, Black Ghosts ..for large company, Frontosa ..for activity,
Corys ..for chaos, Kuhliis ..for brilliance, Congos ..for color
(depends what color ;~).
