I have owned fish for over 20 years. Took a two year break during my divorce, and now back at it. I'm starting small, but soon will own a much larger tank. I have two right now, a community tank and a fry tank. I am changing to live plants shortly, but the plastic plants were easiest for now. I started with livebearing fish as my kids love watching the cycle of life. Not sure what I will be into next, but I am getting some good ideas on this site!
