What kinds of fish have you kept?

I started out with a bamboo shrimp in a 3G hex tank. Then I got guppies, then clown loaches and brochis splendens. Realized I am not a guppy fan after I took the 250th one down to the pet store. Then figured out that the loaches were going to be too big for my tank and gave them to someone on MFK. That is how I found this site. I still have the original brochis and I went through a cory stage were I have around 6 peppers, 6 sterbais, 6 bronzes, 2 juliis and a couple of more that I can never remember what
they are. I have neons, and embers from the beginning. I have a brazillion BNs now, 2 yoyos, a rainbow shark, rummies, sawbwa splendens, long fin albino danios, harleys, a female betta that is 3 years old and my infamous mudskippers. I also have assasians, nerites, and mystery snails. RCS, ghost, and amano shrimp. And how could I forget my platies that were 4 in the beginning and now too many to count! And a bad case of MTS. Oops, I forgot my otos!
