wow in such short time you went for the gusto! good luck & have fun! how did you find MFK? do use them for any help they are great here!

Thanks. I found MFK when I googled information on my Oscars.

I started out with a 14 gallon walmart kit and 2 Oscars and 2 Pacu. When I realized they were not ordinary fish I researched and found this site.

Whenever I buy my first house I plan on having a 300 glass or 450+acrylic show tank.

I have 3 tanks acquired over the last two years. My brother got me started by giving me a 30gl as a house warming gift.

75gl - SA/CA Cichlids
30gl - Barbs, Gouramis, and Dojo
10gl - empty, considering guppies, or small tetras

Next Project - 100+gl outdoor goldfish pond, Spring 2010
