I Retired at 40 & am now an International Man of Mystery... And Jousting

It's futile attempting to summarize 44 years of life experiences in a little
box. Here are some random factoids: I've visited over a dozen foreign countries, I can juggle four things I was a punk rocker with a 15 inch high 'Any colored' mohawk in the eighties. I worked hard and now I do what I want. :-D

Why do you like AC Tropical Fish:
um - The FISH info [ok OK it's because everybody here is SOOO good looking, ;-) ]
6' 100G planted [So far] w a 10+ inch Oscar with a few toys for him. He is moving to a 125g soon and his 100 will become home to my school of [12 so far] denison barbs.
Aquarium 3:
55G Growing out a half-black blushing angel and some BN plecs. It has some live bearers [Molly/guppys] also that I am simply to lazy to attempt to catch.. I just keep feeding them to my O.
typeof:
Freshwater
Rest of Your Aquariums:
#4. 20long With an Appisto 14 H. Rasbora & some corys.
#5. 20G with a pair of Dwarf spotted Puffers.
#6. 29G QT/ER
#7. 29G with a baby Oscar [I have a 55 or 75 he will go to late summer] Right now I am hoping he munches live bearer fry like crazy :-P.
Empty = I have three empty tanks . . . Or maybe I have none :-P.
You see... I was smart enough to edit this before the contest started.
How I got started with aquariums.:
A band-mate of mine had over a dozen tanks -SW - Cichlids - Piranha etc. A few years ago he gave me a 29G he wasn't using and I bought the 40G the next month... MTS has been RAGING ever since and I never looked back lol. I bought my house in 2009 and have been doing other stuff besides squaring away the tanks - I honestly prob have at least a year to go before I can get everything properly in situ.
Favorite fish:
Sushi ;-) I'd LOVE a reef! I also dig shoals od micros, Appistos & Angels are cool too.
Fish I have bred:
Mollies, guppies, Angels spawn frequently but no wrigglers. Convicts years ago.
Why I like fish::
Primarily, I like lemon and tarter sauce but I admit I do find the little slice of their environment i have a window into is equal parts fascinating and relaxing.
Best advice:
RESEARCH! Do I FREAKING really have to tell you to google that... REALLY!?! Put a little effort into trying to learn something... Give it a shot, It works. Also IF you insist on making retarded assertions I will call you out on it, So Nut-up-Buttercup!
Other pets:
Tyler Durden - He is a Black Lab/Rot mix rescue who is an unrepentant eighty pound love machine.

Gas mileage isn't everything OIIIIIIIO
Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.
A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.
There's an animal kind of trick. A human would remain in the trap, endure the pain, feigning death that he might kill the trapper and remove a threat to his kind."
