Hi everyone! I was invited to join in over here by PaulineMI... we both participate on the greatlakesaquaria.com forum where we bonded over Angelfish.

Mostly though I keep & do a little bit of breeding with assorted danio & rasbora nano-fishes.

I've started keeping a blog of my activities at http://aqua.ravenwilde.net/

But here is a somewhat current shot of my 'show tank':



Although I really need to take an updated shot since I've added more plants since this was taken.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone here!
I am a dirt worshiping, planted tank lover - I keep/breed freshwater nano-fishes: danios & rasboras but I also have a soft spot for polypterids. Life is complicated like that. I blog about the hobby at http://aqua.ravenwilde.net

Welcome and glad you joined us.  There are a great group of people here.  Interesting fish discussions and also a feeling of "getting together over coffee chit chat with friends".

Dennis....in addition to angels, she really likes Celestial Pearl Danios...owning and breeding them.   :)
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

Hi Raven, good to see you at Mugwumps!  We know each other from celestialpearldanio.com.

I would think that would be Rainbowfish breeders.  Danios are generally indiscriminate egg scatterers.   ;)

Dennis -
Yes! Thank you for setting up and running that site - its been so helpful!

And yeah... about 'mop-heads'... I use java moss, because I'm an all-natural hippie-type :)
