Hi everyone my name is Ron. I'm 58 years old and have had fresh water fish tanks since I was a 7 year old boy. That being said I am no expert . I have made about every mistake that can be made and probably many more to come. Currently I have 3 - 55 gallon tanks and 1 - 20 gallon. All these tanks are new because I had to take a 15 year break from the hobby to raise my children. 1 is a tropical comunity tank. 1 is an African Cichlid tank 1 is a Oscar tank and the last Is a Jack Dempsey tank. I'm looking forward to learning from all of you . When I was last into the hobby the only resources were the local pet shop and books which were 30 years old even back then. For instance heaters were light bulbs hung over the tank. The Internet has been a great source of information for this hobby I've loved so much since a child . Well thank you all for the things you have shared about the science.I look forward to learning from all of you thank you all.
