Hi everyone, I'm new here. (i just finished posting a thread in the ancient sections for my BGK) now I'm introducing myself here with my brackish set.

I currently have 4 tanks set up. My favorite tank would be my 80gal BW. It includes my 11inch dragon goby, "Puff". A GSP "Verde" which will be moved to his own tank once its done cycling. As well as 3 bumble gobies, some mollies and guppies. They are just there for a live food source for the GSP and whoever else wants to eat the fry. And to add some color to the tank.

Anyways, I'll post my pics soon. I was trying to find a place to introduce myself but didnt find a seperate place to do it. So here it is.
 
Nice to meet you. You could've introduced yourself in the Lounge would probably get more responses. Mod's will probably move it for you or not since you mentioned your brackish set-up. Sounds like a sweet set-up I love the Dragon Gobies looks just can't bring myself to dedicate a tank to brackish. Can't wait for the pics of him. Oh and welcome to MFK! If you have any questions I'm always willing to help!
 
Welcome to mfk and always great to have another brackish keeper. Look forward to seeing pics.
 
thanks for the welcomes everyone.

i have a video of him but the code i got from you tube isnt working on here. if anyone can help wit that, ill post it later.
 
right now i have val, cabomba, java fern and banana plants. my sg is still low i didnt start adding salt til a couple weeks ago. it's at 1.002.
i dont use c02 but i use fertilizers by seachem...all my plants grow like crazy. my banana plants are starting their "lilly pads" i guess, the one grew almost 2 feet in 3 days.
 
you're welcome!
why wouldn't i share? lol there's no secret :P
