hey everyone! been using your forums for tips and whatnot lately, so i decided to join in.
im pretty new to tropical fish (at least as a serious hobby) had a tank in my house most my childhood although ill admit we really knew very little on what we were doing, but luckily we lived 2 blocks down the street form a great fish store. a while back we got a 10 gallon tank from a friend and after a bit of convincing and as my end of the bargain was since that went well we took tax time to upgrade to a 29 gal. still learning, and have much more to do. but your forums have taught me more than i ever knew from growing up and and really loving the new hobby and even surprised at how seriously i started taking it right off the bat. weve had mostly good luck, but as to be somewhat expected with being new there may be a bit of a learning curve and ive had a few problems. unfortunately i live in a very rural area and have no real good stores to go to without driving 3 hours (no really.... im in the middle of nowhere) so i have to settle for walmart (dont hate me, even that is a 45 minute drive away) i quickly realized i know much more than everyone of their employees combined, not that that is saying much. anyway, ill stop rambling and say thanks for having such a great collection of enthusiasts here, and im glad to be here with you.
