Hello!
Hi, new to this site... I've had several tanks through out the years. Currently I have 5 tanks. 2 55gal tanks, 1 65gal tank, 1 10gal tank. The newest member of the family is a 5 inch lionfish which I'm currently "training" to eat frozen food. I live on the island of st.croix, usvi. Through out the years I've had loads of tanks, all of which were not for fish! Lol! I've had everything from hamsters to turtles to frogs to spiders to sea monkeys! I've been working at a local pet store for the past 11years. I'm here to share what I know and learn what I don't... Cause there's always more to learn! Lol.

Ha! I only got into saltwater a couple months back. I started one as a test... See if I could do one, get some first hand experience... But I still love my freshwater! I built a 225gal raised pond for my tiger shovel nose catfish! Very cool!

Fake, live plants are really hard to ship into the island.

That's cool, I don't do live plants either, too much $ involved for my 13 year old salary!

Ha! Then u would love the streams over here! You can collect guppies, mollies, platys, swordtails, algae eating gobies, sleeper gobies, mountain mullets, bluegills, river crabs, 5 different kinds of freshwater shrimps, and 2 type of eels! U would go crazy building tanks for them all! I know I did when I was ur age! Lol

LUCKY! Man I get stuck in Georgia. My wildlife excitement comes from the occasional frog/snake/lizard stuck in the neighborhood pool, and the pathetic stream behind the pool house with salamanders in it.
