Dear Wes: I’ve since begun, to add plants, to this tank. I had intended, to switch it out, with a new tank, soon. But, I’ve been focusing, on a 29-gallon, quarantine tank, to house female guppies, from this tank, as soon as they are sexually dimorphic. The guppies, in this tank are inbred, and I don’t want this to continue. Inbred livebearers tend to have bent spines. A few days ago, I moved all the female guppies, from the other tank, to Charles', guppy colony, where prize males are unrelated, to them. At present, I’m using the new tank, to quarantine a Madagascar rainbowfish (Bedotia geayi) I acquired, from Feeders. Thank you, for your, continued interest and lovely comment. I hope that you continue, to have good success, with your, aquarist hobby. All my best, Sincerely, Brinegar
Dear Gabriel: Right, so if you partner, with a buddy and attend club meetings, you can accomplish more. I’ve also found that giving things away tends to give my work a boost. It is a joy, to share equipment; plants; and fauna, with someone who will take care of them. And, it’s a good practice, per Luke 6: 38 which says: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. I hope you have good success, with your hobby and YouTubing. Sincerely, Brinegar
Dear Gabriel: As I live near Louisville, KY, I am able to be a member of the Louisville Tropical Fish Fanciers club. Monthly meetings are held in Louisville. Meetings often have guest speakers. Equipment and fish food (and sometimes livestock and plants) are auctioned. Some meetings are “swap meets,” so there is apple opportunity to get items at bargain prices. Charles and I also purchase stock and equipment from private sources, when we find same, on offer. If you search postings, on social media, you are likely to find many aquaria and aquarist-related items, on sale, as many people start this hobby, but few continue, for long. I work for the state of Kentucky. I hope you have good success, with your hobby. Sincerely, Brinegar
Looking great

We don’t have a local club. What business do you do?
