Rest of Your Aquariums:

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

How I got started with aquariums.:

My dad kept a fish tank when I was a kid and I got interested and started keeping my own

Fish I have bred:

Various Mbuna species - reared to adulthood (unassisted), Lamprologus Ocellatus Gold - eggs, fry - then they got eaten by tankmates, Silver and Black Mollies - reared to adulthood (assisted), Various Platies - reared to adulthood (assisted), Guppies - reared to adulthood (unassisted), Zebra Danios - eggs laid in a marble set-up, fry hatched - then my heater broke and they died (rookie error), Peppered Corydoras - currently rearing

Why I like fish::

They're interesting and restful to watch and care for.

Best advice:

Research before buying anything! With the internet there's no excuse to be ignorant.
