Hello, my name is John, I go by 8 in the Corner when I am on line in forums. You may or may not have read some of my answers in the fish section of Yahoo!Answers. My primary knowledge is cichlids and tropicals, with a smattering of snails, shrimp and general care. I have 25 tanks set up and running right now with primarily cichlids, a few live bearers, some shrimp, hundreds of snails and a bunch of bushy nosed plecos and corys. I have been in the hobby for about 26 years and have experience in a lot of areas.

I want to thank you all for your warm welcome. I hope I can come close to living up to the reputation that seems to have preceded me. Thanks, Jon .... Eve, good to see you again, hope we can continue to have interesting conversations as we have in the past. Snails??? Yes, snails. Right now I have about a zillion MTS (livebearers). Who wants them for free and how many do you want? My skunk and yoyo loaches can't keep up with them. I had a bunch of black mystery snails but sold all the young and then the parents died. Trying to find some more but nothing has jumped out at me for a while. Too many Johns? You don't have to call me John, I answer to 8 almost anywhere (I play a little pool when I'm not in my fishroom). 8

Oh live bearers, nope don't think so. I just hatched a bunch (50 or so) apple snails. Want some of those lol! Most are Orange and some are white. Don't think I have seen the black ones tho? My mom and pop snails died right after the baby hatched also Wonder if this is normal?
