sup all!

doing some searching and came across this forum, so far so good!

I live in south jersey and an animal nut in general. i own/manage an animal kennel, mostly dogs and cats but we also take care of birds and small pets too, pretty much anything that will fit in cage!
i personally have; fish of course, 2 cats, 3 pretty good sized snakes and 2 scorpions.
i guess this post is useless with out pics so here they are.
first is my aquarium;
its a 46 gal bow front, it is filtered by two rena xp3's plus i have a power head with a pre filter pumping water through a 25w UV sterilizer, it has a 96w CF light and i have 6 fantail goldfish.

Welcome to AA!

I used to have a Burmese. It got to 9 and a half feet and I had to get rid of her.

sorry you had to get rid of her. they can be a handfull once they get over 8 foot or so, my burm is about 11 feet and the reticulated is about 11 and half feet, even though its half the weight of the burm he is harder to deal with, the burm just lazes about.

thanx for the welcome all!
 
True, she was lazy. I had a scare with my 4yo son and knew he would have no problem being a meal for her so I sold.
 
wow thats a pretty good reason to get rid of her! glad nothing happened!

Her pen was a spare room by the garage. My son and I were in there, I turned around for less than 5 seconds, turned back and she was cocked back in a strike pose right in front of him. I dropped the phone and yanked him up. I almost killed her but knew it wasnt her fault due to her eyes being cloudy (about to shed). I called the philly zoo and was willing to donate but they said that they wouldnt take her so I ended up selling to a guy in Edison, NJ.
