Guess What? I'm New!
Hey Everybody,

I'm new to this site and forums in general! I am so tired of trying to get answers from people at the evil empire chain petstores. I have read the forums here several times for advice, so I decided to join to see if I could learn more and maybe share some of my mistakes so others dont make the same ones. I have a 55 freshwater with angels, cherry barbs, an angelfin cat and an albino pleco and many live plants. I built some caves out of river rock for hiding. I have had aquariums off and on all my life and look forward to enjoying this site and all it has to offer.

Thanks

JBH

Cool!

IMO a blue dwarf gourami or a GBR is fine.
