Hello all,
My name is Ed, I've had aquariums for about 15 years. I started small with a 5gal and now have 1) 5gal (feeders), 4) 30gals(1. A pair of Cichlid Convict) ( 2. A pair of Anglefish) (3. a pair of Parrot fish) (4. Hospital tank with some plattys, 3 female and 1 Male for cycling, and thier fry make for good treats for the convicts and parrots) and (1 55gal, 2 Oscars ((will be moving to the 125 asap)) and a black Banded Leporinus.) (1 125gal. still in the box) I plan on setting up the 125 with in the next 2-3 months. I just finished paying off the 125 (lay-a way LFS) and hope to have it set up by April.
I know that sounds like a long time but with 4 kids (2 in college) I have a thin budget. I will be using a DIY stand, but Im not set of filters, heaters or lighting. Any advice/suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you to all those that work to keep MFK up and running. I am really enjoying the forums, pics and all the info. Chat with you later, Ed.
