New Fan To A Family Tradition
« on: March 03, 2013, 08:29:14 PM »
Hello everybody my names mark and im from harrison twp. My family has been raising
South american cichlids ever since i can remember. I just recently got out of the military and needed
A new hobby and something to keep my head clear.. Ive just begun with the.african cichlids
I like the color of the africans,so i decided to set up my own tank .
I have a 29 gallon with taiwan reef haps and a regal peacocks. I find that raising
Cichlids is a great hobby or lifestyle or whatever you öy call it.
Ive also realized that it does wonders as a stress reliver and keeps my mind away
From the military. Ive only just begun but i find myself wanting to set up and care for more and more species
Of cichlids...im very intrested in lake victorian species as im looking for neyeris any type and all sorts of peacocks

Hi Mark, Welcome to the forum. I live in your area and know of a guy that has a big variety of fish you might be interested in.
Nothing but a few empty tanks.

Like grizzly's dad said THANK YOU

I live right near Harrison twp Cass and groesbeck area

I am always around, anytime you want to come over and talk fish or sports or anything else, My door is always open to a Veteran and 99% of the people on this forum, Regal blue is still questionable (joking).

I can help get you introduced to the members and LFS, and if you need any supplies I have them or can get you in touch with people who do.

Dont be shy, this site and club is a great group of people young and old. Again Thank you for your service and if you need anything please ask.
