New to the forum Introducing Myself and my Fish

Post by chris1932 »

Hello to everyone on the Planet Catfish Forum. My name is Chris and I have been keeping fish since I was a young child. I have always had a soft spot for South American fish and have always kept Corydoras. I have been doing some serious breeding lately, mostly wild Angels and Apistogramma. I would like to branch into breeding Corydoras. I currently have Cory Weitzmani, Loxozonus, Arcuatus, Orange Lazer, and Adolofoi in groups I feel are large enough to breed. Each group is between 6-12 fish of wild import. All have been in my tanks for six to eight months. I am looking for advice. I will be posting on the breeding forum soon, asking questions. I figured before I do that I would introduce myself.
This is where I keep my fish.

There are two display tanks. Both are 150 gallons. One is a tall and the other is a wide. The wide houses southeast asian torrent loaches and geophagus. The tall houses discus, angels, corys, and tetras.

The four foot wide hole in the racks is for this.

I plan to move all of the wild angels and my group of cory weizmani into this tank.

The following pictures are my amazon display tank and some of its fish.
