Hey hey 
So, I'm 19 and have been into aquariums since I was young. Starting my sophomore year I decided I wanted to get into the actual raising aspect, and bought some convicts. So it began! As is common knowledge among fellow fish crazies, convicts are (and were) the perfect introduction to the aspects involved in breeding. Ive been hooked since; the last tank I had was a 75g with a breeding pair of Jack Dempseys. Jacks are BY FAR my favorite cichlid I've ever owned. Throughout school, their spawning brought in some extra cash from selling the broods to my LPS. I was able to talk to a few fellow hobbyists in the Port Townsend area, but MAN I wish I had knew about this site then! Couldve avoided a lot of mishaps... but I guess that's just part of the learning process 
:
I left for Job Corps over the past summer and had to sell my pair, tank and equipment. But, as soon as I graduate here getting a new tank is first thing on my list! Hoping to try out festae and salvini in my next venture. But anyhoo, just figured Id show a quick "thank you" to everyone on here; Ive spent a couple hours just exploring the site, and everyone on here seems so helpful AND knowledgeable! Hard to find in todays world, especially where casual people still think bettas can survive in glass cups :evil: So thanks for the awesome site, and the people in it!
Lookin' forward to this!unk:
