8gal Oceanic Biocube nano reef tank. I originally acquired this tank in trade from Simon and have since stocked it up.

Old pics but still pretty accurate

Some fish photos...

Of my entire life, this was my favorite fish. I raised it from a 1" eggsack carrying fry, to nearly 30".... He died several years ago after I introduced a rescued 6" female Wolf Cichlid.... I figured if anything, he would kill and eat her, but it turned out the other way. I woke up the next morning after introduction, and she had ripped every shred of fin off his body... he ended up dieing of shock/infection, no matter how hard I tried to save him... RIP buddy.

An old photo, but its one of my favs.. Him with his buddy, a huge 8" moonlight gourami.

I love Koi swords!!

That's too bad about your aro. Wolf cichlids are pure evil. I have one back in Alaska in a 75. I believe she is about 7-8" now. She lives completely by herself and likes to hunt bubbles on top of the water. :rolleyes:
I asked the hubby last night if she is still doing that. Yep. Crazy fish.

I would like to get back into saltwater one day. I used to manage a pet store in AK and right before they went under, I had converted 9 of their freshwater tanks over to saltwater and was doing quite well with it. I had just started getting into anemones and mushrooms. I love mushrooms.
