| hi! my fish and i are new here. i love keeping fish. i started out years ago with one male betta, truman. unfortunately, truman is no longer with me, but he sparked a fire in me and i haven't stopped! i adore fish. i have successfully bred glofish (then didn't know what to do with them, since it's illegal to sell them!) and mollies. i can say i enjoyed the mollies more, live-bearers are so fun!
currently, i have a 29 gal tank, planted, with sand as substrate. in my tank i have:
6 guppies (these are my new endeavor, i hope to breed them!)
2 mollies
3 glofish
3 khuli loaches
3 female bettas
2 apple snails
my bettas are currently isolated, and will, unfortunately, probably be looking for new homes soon.
if anyone has suggestions or tips, please don't hesitate to share! even though i have bred both types of fish (live-bearers and egg-layers) successfully, i still have tons and tons to learn!

| Howdy and welcome! Nice to get a tidewater person on this side of the Water! Hampton here but very close to Newport News! You need to check out when our next meeting/hang out is and come! It's always fun to hang out with folks that are a little on the "wierd" fish freak side!
