Hey all. I'm new to here. I didn't follow the instructions and I did some posts then found myself here. So I thought I should introduce myself.
I'm a mom to a three year old imp girl. She occasionally does nasty things to my tanks but its all out of her love for them. (see my post under tank talk for " I had a little disaster) I have three tanks. Two tens and a 29. I would have larger but my budget and living on the third floor of an apartment building restricts me. I love my plecs. I have a 4inch sailfin named Salty(he reminds me of a pirate) and three of what I think are candystripes(we call one of them smoochy) and two rubberlips. Oh and also a common named Blackbeard. I also have a bunch of gouramis, a ton of guppies(which i raise to sell to my LFS in exchange for more cool plecs) and some schooling danios and gold barbs for decoration. My most recent addition was a black ghost knife fish, he's a baby and is only 3 inches long right now.
On a side note of what I do besides play with my fish tank and chase my daughter, I am a caricaturist. I draw the goofy pics of people as cartoons, I also airbrush, do some reg painting, scultpting, wood carving, etc. I would like to get into freelance illustration work and find work as a graphic designer.
So I guess that me in a nutshell. A fish loving mom who loves her plecs and draws for a living. Oh and I really hate mornings.
