Expertise
~my dad got mad and took away my internet. dont kno when ill have it back. sorry...~ I will answer all questions as best I can, and if I am unsure of the answer, I will be willing to do research. I can answer questions about tetras, especially neon tetras. I can also answer questions on common diseases and parasites and how to treat them, and tank setups, maintenance, and cleaning. I can provide info. on cichlids (including breeding), goldfish, raising and breeding fancy guppies, and feeding your fish. If I don’t know the answer to your question, I will research and tell you my findings.

Experience
I am 16 years old, but I have owned at least one fish tank since I was in elementary school. I now have a tank dedicated to raising and breeding fancy guppies, with much success. I have another tank with goldfish, which I’ve had the longest, and a larger tank with convict cichlid cichlids, which I have successfully bred, jewel cichlids, and an oscar. I’ve also raised and bred other cichlids as well. I used to have two other tanks, one with angel fish, and the other with tetras, which I recently got rid of. I’ve raised other fish such as catfish and gouramis along the way too. Since I have had fish so long I know much about diseases, and parasites, and how to treat them. At the time i am writing this now i have: 1 Oscar 2 Jewel Cichlids 1 betta 6 goldfish 1 Kuhli loach 1 Rainbow shark 1 pleco 25 guppies 6 adult convict cichlids 30 young convict cichlids

Organizations
I am hoping to volunteer at Hawk Creek.

Education/Credentials
im only 16.... but I've been on the honor role my whole life(averages in the mid 90's), and im taking college courses in highschool.
