I had fish tanks as a kid, and when in college. Since getting out of the Navy, I've now had fish tanks for approx. 2.5 years. Currently up to 6 tanks with over 120 fish total, and 2 empty tanks being set up for breeder tanks for GBR's. Also into fully planted tanks with pressurized CO2 and very high lighting (8w/g and above)

In these areas I rate my knowledge as a : (score 1-5 and add notes)
Plants: 4 (I have a heavily planted 75G and a medium planted 29G, lightly planted 26G bowfront, also medium and high lighting experience, not real good at naming plants from a pic, but can grow just about anything)
Livebearers: 0 (I have no interest)
Cichlids: 4 (Dwarf Cichlids only, Breeding German Blue Rams and Bolivian Rams)
Bottom Feeders: 3 (Otos and Cories, BN Plecos, Common Plecos, Fire Eels)
Gourami/Betta: 0
DIY/Equipment: 2 (DIY CO2 setups for planted tanks)
Chemistry: 4 (Cycling tanks, ferts for planted tanks, Natural ph adjusting via peat, driftwood, crushed coral, limestone, etc. Also Pressurized CO2 setups for Planted Tanks)
Saltwater: 0
Brackish: 0
Diseases: 2 (ick, popeye, and a few others)
"Critters": 0
