ok, yeah, im not an Aussie... and Ive not properly introduced myself to this Forum yet either!!! shame shame on me eh? gah!
ok, Hi everybody, my name is Wazeeikitettell Anaastte Addieiea... LOL, ok just kidding!
My name is Shawn Sparks, Im from Oxford Alabama ,U.S. my phone number is ... LOL! my adress is... ok maybe this is to personal! haha
im a goofball if ya didnt notice already! So bare with me!
I love Discus, which is my new hobby, along with not keeping baby few month old Discus in my planted 29 gallon aquarium with 2 discus, a neon purple and a PB and 10 Neons-Cardinals (5each)... I am also into the MARINE HOBBY... having successfully kept a Reef Tank for 9 years and have propagated several species of coral and also having managed to breed ... and breed, and breed.... andddd breeeeeed Yellow Tailed Damsels UNSUCCESSFULLY I decided to go into another hobby where I could BREED JUST SOMETHING, so I got into Eastern Box Turtles, which in the States are very endangered.. In Alabama I DO NOT have to own a licence as of yet to own them... so thats good, I have bread these species of turtle quite a bit having produced several clutches of babies... and released them into Talladega Nation Forest where they can resume their natural life untouched....., I then began to look at something else to BREED... so I turned to my old love of Budgies, which since you guys are from Austrailia you should know all abou these little buggers!!!... I have 3 Budgies now... or as the Natives call them down there, Budgerigars... or Good Bird to eat!!! :(
anyway, So I have these three birds now, which are JUSTTT NOWWW getting to the age of appropreatness (spell it however you want to, but thats correct!!! LOL!), to breed, I have a Male (Genesis) and 2 Females (Grace and Lemon)
Genesis my male is a Sky Blue and White Varity and the females, Grace is Solid White with some Black on her back and Lemon is darker Blue with a Yellow Face and Black wings... very nice birds I have! :)
so THEN... the good part, comes my of course, natural love of freshwater Planted aquariums...which I had never attempted.. soooo I decided to give it a go!.. well for the first few weeks it did wonderfully, which Java Moss, Fern Amazon Swords, Ozelot Swords, dwarf chain swords and some Apong bulbs and Tiger lotus bulbs it was on its way!!! I also had some Radican Swords I think too... and some Cript Wendtii (red) and.... some..... Glostig.. blah blah blah... ok anyway!!!! So I got some Cardinal Tetras in there and they had all been infected with Fish TB!!! and I used some .. Eurthmi weird crap and some other weird crap to try and stop it.. which it didnt stop it and wiped half of them out as well as almost my intire plant collection... so I was realllllly discouraged... so then I straightened the tank back out and got some more fish and such and then stumbled unto the DISCUS world!!!... and AH HA! here I am writing an intire life story for all of you to be bored with!!! :D
