First topic message reminder :Hello all! My name's Kori, and I'm a 22 year old born and raised Texan living up here in the great (freezing) hand of Michigan. Joy of joys.
This sums me up pretty nicely. Making a fool of myself at the Detroit Zoo. <3
I'm an avid goldfish keeper, though as the weather warms up I plan on branching out more into tropicals. I've kept cories and plecos, tetras here and there but nothing much else.
I've kept just about every species of goldfish you can rattle off--Ryukin, Fantails, Demekin, Bubble Eyes, Celestials, Telescope, Ranchu, Lionheads, Oranda, Comets, Shubunkin, and the list goes on-- And I'm more than happy to share and advice and my experience with anyone in need.
Currently I'm hand raising four juvenille axolotls, two leusteics and two wildtypes. This is my first batch of these unique little creatures, and I'm thrilled by how absolutly amazing they are. Wonderful, unique animals, would highly recommend to anyone who already keeps aquariums as an unusual exotic pet.
(Here are three of the "babies". Buta, the largest of the four, refuses to be photographed.)
I've got two cats, a Mainecoone named Slurpee and an American Shorthair named Remington, or Remy for short.

(Up to date: yes, she still uses him like her personal couch)
We've got two hamsters--Milkshake and JubJub-- but good luck getting pictures of those two little freaks.
My current goal is to find SOMEONE who keeps fish in an outdoor setting and is willing to put up with questions. ;D I'm not as skilled with filteration and plumbing as I'd like to be, and I try to gleam as much as I can off forums and through books, but sad to say I'm old fashioned and I wanna get my hands on something real and get dirty.
Aside from all that I'm a hoodie and blue jeans kinda girl who likes all styles of artwork, tattoos, and loud alternative rock and some country here and there.
Anyway... nice to meet you all!
