About Me:
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
I told you they were random.
I strive to be the person my dog thinks I am.
Music:
Loud! And my car is emphatically NOT a democracy when it
comes to control of the stereo.

Dystopian things,
Who I'd like to meet:
Hunter S. Thompson, Bill Hicks, George Carlin - Sadly, All gone. But Neil deGrasse Tyson is not :-)

Children:
No
Hometown::
A place in Illinois you never heard of.
Aquarium 1:
90G Planted, Harlequin Rasboras, Bloodfin & Lemon tetras, 2 pairs of angelfish, 9 or 10 Schwartz corys, 2 L144s, Neratine, Amanos, Ghost shrimp.
Aquarium 2:
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.
Video:
My GF calls me insincere... I pretend to care. Think about how stupid the average person is and then realize that half of them are stupider than that.~George Carlin. that great.~Otto Rohwedder. My optimistic pessimism is tempered with pessimistic optimism. Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.~Aldous Huxley. William, What decade will all that 'hit-n-run crapola spam' be deleted from 'Buy & sell'?
