Hello everyone my name is Gary and I have been in the hobby since I was a boy. I grew up fishing and even had a rainbow trout pond in my backyard for a while. I have worked @ a few lfs and have done lots of work with reptiles as well. I have bred Tons of fish over the years getting into different types @ different times. I currently am working with different hybrids and trying to make a few more. I also keep peacock bass, polypterus and some different pleco's. The aquatic hobby is much more to me than anything else. I have turned my love of fish into a career and my passion into a vision for others to appreciate. I maintain tanks all over metro Detroit and teach people daily about the joys of this hobby. I am here to help and enjoy your interaction. I have been a member here for a while now and I know things have changed a bit since I joined but it is good to know that there are like minded people out there. I have also recently been given a bad rap on here so dont believe the hype. Check out some of my threads and see for yourself that I am not a bad guy!
