Hello, my friends. How are 'ya, my name is Jim and I'm new to this site of course, but not to the wonderful world of aquaria.I figure I've been lying to myself that mine is not an addiction to fish and aquariums for about 20 years now, give or take. I'm thinking it all started when as a joke I tossed a couple of fry I scooped up at the lake where I was doing community service for some ticket I'd gotten , into my brother's 25g. He was at the time very into his fish and I just wanted to see IF, and HOW LONG, it would take for him to notice. hehehe. Well, it didn't quite work out like I'd hoped as I don't think he noticed and I flat out forgot about it for a while. Anyway, to shorten my story a bit my additions turned out to be largemouth bass and for some reason they ended up being some of the last of the remaining fish my brother now had. Since then in my search for progressively bigger and bigger tanks and fish and critters of all sorts, I've had to build a few ponds along the way just so the whole thing doen't get outta hand. cause I would'nt want the neighbors to think I had any kinda problem with my little obsession when the forklift finally does show up with my dream tank!.
