This is my first thread since joining the forums. I've been reading up and enjoying the forum. I'm now ready to post some tanks. A quick bio, I'm Steven, I've been in reptiles and fish for over 10 years. At my peak I was breeding ball pythons with over 20 morphs, selling 100,000 mealworms per month to a distributor and 500 fancy guppies (1-1.5 inch) per month. This operation while profitable was taking two entire rooms in my home and lots of my free time. In 2013 I sold off all of my pythons but 1, all of my guppy operation (tanks included $$$) and all but one of my mealworm cubicles. Im now setting back up some fish tanks for enjoyment and a possible future cichlid and oscar breeding venture.
Now to date I have setup a 20 gal high and 20 gal long which have cycled. The 20 high is a fake reef setup with young cichlids. This is a grow out tank and they will move to a 55 next. The 20 long is cycled but empty, I believe it will house some small Oscars soon. For my breeding projects I prefer to start young and grow out several fish to find my breeding stock. My current targets to breed are bumblee cichlids, kenyi cichlids and possibly some of the more expensive varieties. I have kept cichlids before but will need some advice. Some ids as well undoubtedly. I'll get some pics up now.
