    Good evening everyone :)

    My name is Dimitra (I have no avatar yet, but I'm getting there). I've wanted fish my whole life and my boyfriend surprised me the other day by coming home with a tank! How exciting. It's a tiny beginners 30l, but I've got a great little tank so far without a single loss (And I have neons in there!)

    Two weeks later, I rescued a little betta from a horrible store and he is now happily living with a school of neons in a 20l tank :D

    My mission - to have a house one day with a giant fish tank rather than a wall between two rooms. But for now, I'm just gonna waddle my way along, collecting fish a long the way!

    I have a Pearl Gourami (male) who is being a menance and chasing around my little angels. If anyone in CPT wants him, give me a shout!

    Otherwise, I hope I can make some friends here for advise sharing and fishy related joys!

    Have a good weekend!

    Welcome To Tasa!
    Enjoy the forum, hobby and new-found friends.

    Get your Pearl Gourami male some female companions - they are normally the most placid gourami's.
