Your Very First Tank

[gregzz4]

I killed my first goldfish when I was 7
When I was 10 I was breeding Betas and Guppies
Then no fish until I was 20 and had a 6' 120g, 2 20s and a 10g, with lots of boring tropical stuff plus my prized 18" pleco. He was buried in the back yard when he was done
Couple years after that the 120 was setup again as well as a 33g (both freshwater)
Couple years after that I was breeding cichlids in the 120 and the 33 was setup as a community 'tropical' tank in my parents' LR. Mom loved coming home to watch the fish
Things were moved around and sold
Then no tanks for 20 years
Another 125g freshwater with a 36g shrimp tank and a couple 20s for QT etc

Salt started when I became frustrated with stag algae that kept killing all my freshwater plants
