I have been posting on this site for the last couple weeks now and have spoken to many of you but I dont really know anything about the people here or even the name they like to be called by. So if anybody is willing to tell some info about themselves feel free to post here.

Ill go first.

My name is TOM
Im 25 Years old
I live in Westbury NY
I am in the Video Game industry (Buyer for a wholesale distributor in Queens)
I also sell games on Ebay USERNAME 3BUSYMEN

This is a fun site and working in Queens on a computer most of the day it gives me some time to unwind during the day.
 
Hello Tom. I had this exact thought yesterday just never got around to posting the thread. I just wanted to know how many Fish Ppl there was in Arkansas, probaly not many. Well here goes.

My name is Kim.
I'm 24 yrs old.
I live in a little town called Possum Grape, Arkansas. Population 183!
I am the sole runner of an automotive & aerospace paint and sundry item distributor. My sole passion is for all of my animals. Fish and all. I have 3 aquariums, maybe one day more but husband said Whoa!, all Freshwater. Just can't afford a SW but like I said maybe 1 day.

I hope everybody else participates in this.
 
Nice to meet you Kim, Wow Quite a small town! you most know everyone. I dont even know many of the people on my street and i bought my house a year ago lol. I think people are friendlier outside of NY.

What size tanks do you have and what do you keep? I only have one (just bought it) 210 MBUNA african cichlid tank.
I guess i should have asked that on the first post.
Also how do you like running your own business? I find much more joy in my internet business as opposed to the day job i am still at right now....
 
What the heck...

I'm Len
I'm 36
I live in Forsyth County, Ga. (Google it and you'll see why I can't identify my city... lol)
I work for a large wireless company as the SE Region E911 Ops Manager. I also volunteer at the Ga Aquarium and am involved in local politics. My true focus is on collecting the necessary knowledge on everything to open a LPS in the next couple years though. I have 15 tanks up right now along with 2 spoiled dogs. Next step... converting one to a SW tank. *gasp*
 
I guess I will do it too...

Josh here
17 years old
Lived in Eagan, MN my entire life...a decently large suburb, about 70,000 people, directly south of the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul)
Only "job" I have is at a local gas station, working about 10-20 hrs. a week

Well Tom, I don't know everybody but I would say alot of them. Most of them are the biggest REDNECKS you could even imagine and the other half is in their elder years. Most ppl around me are pretty friendly though, they can see you out in the yard and they want to stop and see how is your ma and pa doin. LOL.

I have a 55gl with goldfish, columbian ramshorn snails, and a marbled sailfin pleco. Also a 29gl with a marbled angel, young bichir, briggs of different colors, and a few remaining female mollies. And last is my 10gl which I am super excited about today I will be introducing a marbled crayfish into along with guppies. That pretty much sums up all my tanks although I am thinking seriously about redoing my 55 gl.

O and it isn't my business, I just totally run it for a father and son Inc. They don't ever do anything except call and ask everything ok and I say yep and that is all they want. It sucks sometimes b/c I drive an hour to work and an hour home. But there isn't anything that pays well around where I live except a gas station. And I did work like that in High School.

Yes, first step is brackish I think. Anyone know a good filter for removing dog hair from the water?
 
OK- my turn. My name is Dawn; I most recently am from the pacific NW but now I live in Hendersonville NC; a nice town in western NC; considered the mountains (blue ridge) that is apparently a retirement mecca! I am 46 yrs old, married, have 3 sons (2 military) and one daughter (step); 3 grand daughters. I work for the county - admin in the child protective services unit and am a supervisor of the clerical team.
I am a beginner in fishkeeping and am enjoying learning and the comradery that this sight provides......
