Hello from Chicago!
wanted to introduce myself. name is jeff and most of the people i know call me Pooh hence the name and I have my first actual tank! its nothing major, just a 10 gallon with 5 neon tetras and some plants... here is a picture
the tank was cycled using bloodfins but they now have a new home since they were bullying the neons so hopefully the neons stay alive!
if this works well, im plan on starting a 30 or 50 gallon for my family room

hello and welcome! glad you are here!
i like your tank
If it's called tourist season why can't I shoot them?
Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen.
I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
Tolerance is a great thing to have, so is the ability to shut up.
