Hey! I've been a local of another fish forum for years and I thought I'd add to my forum life and get all the expertise I can to help me with my new venture. I've been keeping fish since I was nine years old, of course it all started with a betta and has grown from there. I've had nano tanks most of my life, but after moving across the country in 2020 I've been slowly converting my whole house into a fish room. I currently have 6 tanks- 2 for bettas, 2 for guppies, a mixed community.... and an 80 gallon oscar tank! I've only had her for about two weeks and I am totally smitten with her. She's just about 3 inches long right now, so she has a little growing left to do! Her name's Ursula.

Welcome to the fishy family!

Oscars are great fish and so much character. Keep us updated on her development.

Ursula is very cute!
Welcome and try not to keep getting more fishtanks.
He's already caught MTS (multiple tank syndrome), it's just slowing the spead/eventual take over of the whole house.

Keep a journal and post a lot! It's fun as you discover all about your O. In no time you'll be complaining about mucky filters! :grinyes:

haha, I look forward to that... I'm not sure if it goes against the etiquette, can I start a proper progress thread now? Or does that count as spam-posting?
also can you tell me how to edit my profile pic? lol

Can’t edit profile till 6 posts.
Don’t worry, posting a lot is fine as long as you don’t post anything stupid or annoying (most of the time ?)

Thanks for the info! I'll just make a thread for all my tanks and be there in no time :)
