Hi, All:
I'm another new resident of South Florida, moving here from Ohio. I'm a longtime hobbyist, formerly Breeder's Award Chair for FAAS, and currently counsel to the ACA. On the local level in Cincinnati I've served as Show Chair, Newletter Editor, BAP Chair and FAAS rep.
Some of you may have seen my online articles about 1000 gallon concrete cichlid tanks, and breeding the longeared sunfish (I'd post the links here, but as a newbie I'm not permitted yet).
I attended the August GCAS meeting, and I'm delighted to find people who share my interests (cichlids and natives). I've collected five species of cichlids in the wild (mariae, jewels, mayans, managuensis and oscars) since I arrived in mid-June, and I am looking forward to joining the dipnetting expeditions which I understand are occasionally organized by GCAS members.
Meanwhile, I am interested in finding a good price on a used (or new) 125 with stand - from someone who can help me move it (I have only a very small car until my wife joins me from Ohio with our SUV). I have a 9 inch male oscar (from Loxahatchee NWR), and he's not happy about living in a 55. Any suggestions for a retail or hobbyist source for such a tank and stand (at a reasonable price) would be appreciated.
