New to the forum (though I know I was registered on one a long time ago, I just can't remember which one!) and just saying a quick 'hi'.

I'm one of those people who never really liked fish until I fell in love with my boyfriend's fighter and got one of my own. Of course, he was lonely in his little tank, so I got him some cory and tetra friends. Then I got him his bestest friend ever (they'd swim everywhere together, it was very cute), a western pygmy perch. So of course, by now, I needed a bigger tank.... you know the story!

Now I have a 65L community tank with fighters, gourami (as of recently just one :( ), tetras, bristlenose, a geriatric cory and cherry shrimp (I think - they're like little ninjas, impossible to see). One of the tetras is named Leonardo, after the teenage mutant turtles, because he has two tails.

My partner has a 125 L tank with tetras, bristlenose and gouramis as well, plus we have plans to build a koi pond :)

Oh... and I'm looking to buy a nice second hand 6-footer.....

Welcome to the forum :)

Sounds like you have MTS (multiple tank syndrome). Get out of the hobby now. Run. Seriously. I got my tank at around the start of this year and since have gotten three more, plus one I almost got at the opp shop...

But seriously, sounds like a lovely community tank you have there. I wish I didn't have fish that fighters would eat, I'd love to have some (will have to buy another tank XD).
