My name is John Pirrone, all my friends call me Pepperonihead! I have been into planted tanks for aproximately eight years or more, can't remember! I have had fish tanks since I was a little guy. My tank now is a 72 gallon bow front with tons of plants, rainbows, some Apistos, some endlers, Congos, neons, etc. I am addicted and need to go to Plantaholics anonymous!

Welcome! Where are you from? Shall we assume you go to UCI? =)

Howdy folks.

Well, I'm a science teacher in Long Beach, and I'm setting up my first(sort of) plant tank.

My fishy resume.....

Hahaha. I spent 2 years in high school working in the Petsmart Fish department. When I was working there I tried one plant tank, but was surprised when all of the Tetra soil that I bought washed away. lmao. (don't worry...super employee discount).

So now I have come around full circle, and decided to set up a 50g plant tank in my science classroom. Needless to say, this will have to be as DIY and budget friendly as possible. Anyone have any plant clippings/plants they want to donate to the youth of Long Beach? =)

So I've had a great time researching my new set up, and can't wait for the first Scape RL meating.

Greetings,
Jon

Hey I am a youth of Long Beach.

Where do you teach? It seems we wont have a meeting soon but I am sure some one can help you out with some clippings. I wish I had a science teacher with this much interest in planted aquariums. One of my teachers has a goldfish in a 10g thats about it.

I'm Lu. Been in various segments of aquaria since I was a kid. Started with goldfish, progressed to carnivores (arowana, oscars etc.), then an initial run in with a planted tank w/ diy co2, after that saltwater fish and inverts. Right now, I have 40g saltwater tank with various soft corals, inverts and fish, a 160g outdoor pre-formed pond with goldfish and plants (the koi became raccoon supper), and my new 2 month old 100g planted tank.

My handle shrimpy1 came from saltwater cleaner shrimps. To my surprise, shrimps have become such a big thing in fw planted tanks.

Great responses! I was just making a play on any of the anonymous groups with my intro, but it's nice to hear some of your backgrounds in case you were like me and didn't ever do an intro when you joined the site
