Hi guys, My name is Dai, and I'm a Local Area Magician.
Growing up I always had fish, But Never knew what cycling was or anything like that. I always did as my grandparents did and Put the fish in the sink and did weekly complete water changed and scrub downs... and we wondered why all our fishes died... lol
But now, after being employed at the Pasadena Petco as the Dog Training Manager[Hobby], I've learned a lot from our aquatics guy and he has helped me out with my current tank which is only a 20h, I'm adding a 40gal Breeder this next month.
Currently I have a 1.5" Cumberland Slider Named Donatello, 1.5" Comet Goldfish, a 3" Opaline Blue Gourami, A 3.5 Pleco, 2 Japanese Algae eating Shrimp and a crayfish[Little jerk, don't care for him/her much.] yes all in the 20h, I know i'm a horrible person. BUT at least I'm keeping up with my water changes and my water is very clear and cycled. The Turtle doesn't bother the fish [hence why there's a comet in there, he wouldn't eat it when it was tiny. =/] which is odd I know, i'm just as confused as everyone else.
The Turtle and Pleco and Crayfish are going in the 40 Gal Breeder, with a couple of wild caught Texas Cichlids that are currently in quarantine. I know I'll have to get a bigger tank eventually for the turtle, at least 120gal but I've got to do it in steps. With the Texas Cichlids in there with him I'll need at LEAST a 150 - 210. I figure by the end of the year I'll be able to have a 150 or 200. At least I'm hoping so.
I've also got a Ball Python who is 6 years old and she hatched in my hand, she's in a 75 Gallon tank that used to be a S/W tank that was given to me after they killed their fish. I also have a rather large Feline that lives with me and my Baby Harley, the american Pit bull terrier who's 5 and also an E.S.A. [Emotional Support Animal] for me. So yeah, you can say I'm an animal person, and I'm a Strolling Magician[Career], I do many Private parties, Trade Shows, Country Clubs, etc. I'm not a kid magician, anything under 14-15 I'll find you someone else. I prefer to do magic for adults. So Hi! I'm New, just saying hello, how is everyone?
