Hi Everyone
I'm getting back in to the hobbie. I just picked up a 125gal setup and looking forward to getting it up and running with my grandkids help :) . I have a lot of questions and found most answers just lurking here on the fourm. Looking foward to getting to know people with the same interst as I have.

Thanks Rick

Welcome aboard Rick. I love 125g tanks - my primary showtank right now is 125g and I'm actually preparing to sell it and replace it with an acrylic 125g. Perfect size tank for african cichlids, amongst others. :)

Hi Rick!

Just FYI there is an aquarium club meeting in Bellingham on the Third Thursday of every month at the Barkley Village Haggens. (Its coming up on the 19th.) You can find the Bellingham Aquarium Society on Facebook (just do a search) or I'd be happy to answer questions for you. Kaosu and I have gone to all but the very first meeting, and I believe some of the other attendees are active on this site as well.

Also, if you are starting up a tank, I'd be happy to bring you some plant starts.

Clark's Feed and Seed is a great place to find fish and experts. Also, the specialize in species for smaller tanks (smaller than yours), which might be a great resource for your grandkids, if they get tanks of their own.

Hi Liz
I'll have to take you up on the plants after I get the tank setup. I saw the club on Cragslist last month and will see about going this month.

Thanks Rick
