Aquarium 1:

I'm building my first reef out of a 20g Long

I technically have another 30g, 5g, and a 2.5g but I don't use them except for hospital tanks or vacations.

typeof:

Freshwater

Rest of Your Aquariums:

I don't have more aquariums than that/those described above

How I got started with aquariums.:

My fiance's relative is very into keeping fish as a hobby and so is his dad. I enjoyed watching them so much and had fish when I was little so started my own aquarium.

Favorite fish:

My common pleco "Hoover" AKA "Hoov-dog"

Fish I have bred:

haha, do Platies count? It wasn't on purpose lol

Why I like fish::

I love watching them and have a strong instinct to want to take care of things

Best advice:

Get non-aggresive fish to live together in an aquarium. They don't kill each other and you don't have to feel bad constantly that one or all are being hurt or picked on (I made that mistake early on)

Other pets:

Farm cats, three dogs, a guinea pig, and a rabbit
