Back to the fish addiction
« on: January 18, 2013, 03:04:08 PM »
Hello all.

I guess I should post something in here.  My name is Ken.  I live near Capac.  I'm married and have a 1 year old son.  Work in the automotive manufacturing industry.  We have dogs and horses, live on 10 acres.  My other hobby is 4x4 trucks.

I used to have all kinds of freshwater fish at one time or another growing up.  You name it, I tried it.  My wife and I got into saltwater fish at our first house and pretty much got burnt out on the hobby.

Now, we are back into it!  African Cichlids we are.  We have an 85 gallon "peacock tank" and 140 gallon "Mbuna plus" tank.  Also a 20 gallon that was supposed to be a hospital tank... turned into a fry holding tank.  Plus another 20 that is used for whatever.

Thats me in a nut shell.

Hopefully it continues.  Currently looking to set up another 85 gallon or so to do a little breeding.  We'll see how that goes.

Already have the fish... need the tank.  (I know, a little backwards)
