    Smile Hello, I'm an old newbie

    My real world name is Hal.

    I've returned to fishkeeping after some decades away. So, a majority of the technology is really new. So please bear with me if I ask some stupid sounding questions.

    I have raised a family, lost a wife and am now learning the single life.

    I returned to aquaria for the companionship of my finned friends.

    Welcome to the AC AVRAPTORHAL. There are alot of us here that used to keep fish, stopped for decades and then got back into it. You'll find the info your looking for and the members here usually have the info you can't find.
    Warning; Bulldog Pleco guarding my Sons tank now..
