    Returning to the hobby

    Hey guys, just wanted to say hello and tell a little about myself. I live in Crosby, and just recently purchased my first aquarium in over 10 years and can not say enough about how awesome it has been. I once had about 9 aquariums in my house in Baytown, but with the birth of my son and being part owner in a custom cabinet shop I was not able to keep up with the tanks and sadly had to sell them all. Now that my son is 12 and interested in fish I thought this would be a great way for our family to do something together (other than video games). I purchased a 90 gallon aquarium off of craiglist that just needed a little clean up and water and it was ready to go. Look forward to talking and learning as much as I can about the hobby. Thanks for the time and have a great day.

              Right now I just have some assorted African Chichilds and 2 Synodontis catfish. Hoping to learn more in the future about specific types of chichilds.

                        Welcome back to the hobby. It can be hard to stay away. I think it will be a good hobby to share with your son.
                        Tell your boss you need to go home to take care of your "cichlids." It sounds an awful lot like "sick kids." )

                              I would eventually like to try other chiclids, once I get a little more knowledge, and persuade my wife that there is room for a least one more tank.
