Hi, my name is Alex and I have recently discovered this forum and absolutely love it! I have had fishtanks of various shapes and sizes for many years now. Currently I have two tanks:
My spellings may be off but should be recognizable

75gal (HOT Magnum 250, Penguin 330)
3 Tin Foil Barbs
1 Pleco
1 Tire Track Eel
1 Syndontus Punctatus(sp)

55gal (HOT Magnum 250, Penguin 350b)
3 Black Neon Tetras
3 Albino Cory
1 Betta
1 Goldfish (or koi, pretty big)
1 Rubber Lipped Pleco
1 Yoyo Loach
1 Otocinclus

Recently switched both tanks from gravel to sand and that was a chore but was well worth it. Lost my Pictus Catfish from my 75gal during the switch but thats a thread all on its own. I love reading the ideas and information from this forum and hopefully can share some of the things I have learned.
