My name is Roy and I live in Houston (Heights area). I've been keeping fish for 25 years and its amazing how the industry and techniques have changed and altered over the years. I'll list my various tanks/environs for everyone's perusal.
Main Community Tank (60 gallon) 4 Silver Dollars (2 differing varieties, but not sure which), 6 Silver Hatchets, 10 Columbian Blue/Red tetra's, 1 Black Ghost, 1 Striped Raphael, 3 Clown Loaches, 1 Ornate Ctenotoma
Aggressive Tank (55 gallon) 1 Ornate Bichir (very Large - 14"), 1 Blue Tilapia (wild caught)
Planted Tank (10 gallon) currently empty, but will be using it as my first foray into shrimping and Killi's. I'm currently thinking about shooting for 4 Otocinclus, 12 Crystal Red Shrimp, and hatching out some Nothobranchius guentheri (have a collection of 25 eggs?)
Betta cube (1 Gallon) Has a Yellow Betta (Splendens) and 2 Ghost Shrimp
Whiskey Barrel Pond (50 Gallons?) A collection of wild Caught Sailfin Mollies, Killiefish, and Sleeper Gobies.
Goby Tank (35 gallon) 4 Jade Sleepers (Dormitator maculatus, wild caught)
I'll post in the various appropriate forums for each as well as some questions/ideas about my various tanks.
On a side note I do regularly go on collection trips (once a month usually) and would always appreciate some company should anyone wish to join or just try it out. I usually stay in the Houston area/North Houston area, but could be enticed to go a bit farther afield.
