About

I’m a pretty new convert to the aquarium hobby, but I’ve dived right in and am splashing around enthusiastically.  By day, I’m a software developer, and I really wish we were allowed to have aquariums in the office! 🙂  (Then again, I might get less work done with a betta buddy on my desk…)  My other pets are a Siamese rescue, Tristan, and a crotchety old lady cockatiel, Darian (long story short, we didn’t know she was female for a very long time… XD ).

Fish-wise, I’m focused on freshwater tropicals for now.  Current stock includes:
