Hello from Long Island New York

[Cappuccino]

Hello people,

I used to raise fish back in the day, probably 25 years ago when I was just a teenager. Well, I went away from this lifestyle and decided to come back this year when my brother decided he didn't want his 45 gallon tank and gave it to me. Well, I am definitely back into this lifestyle now!

You see I am in my final stages of becoming a New York State licensed psychologist. Right now I am finishing up my internship where I work with the developmentally disabled, the mentally ill, and substance abusers and I haven't even told you about the patients yet. LOL... I guess you can see why I need something to help me relax. I come home and my family knows to give me time with my fish while I regain my composure from a hard day at the office.

I've been looking to start another tank soon, not sure if I want to do Africans, South Americans, Salt Water, but I know I do not want to start another community tank.

Welcome, fellow New Yorker...My advice is to go to a local fish store and see what jumps out at you the most and then go with that theme.

Thank you for the greeting and making me feel welcome.

I have tried that and the problem is that they all jumped out at me. I have been thinking about a wolffish, but I am not sure if they are even available in my state. I would love some advice on whether it is possible to find one, where I should look, and if it is possible to get one that is between 1 and 2 inches.

Welcome...
