How'd that work out for you as your 1st fish?
He was a great fish. My tank was running for 4 months before I added my first fish, so he had a nice stable enviroment and was an awesome fish to experience.

Well good for you. I would not have been able to wait 4 months to add something. I was really anxious to get some fish in there. The minute my levels were good, I went straight to the LFS. You have some serious patience.

yeah but within that 4 months, i bought all the rock i wanted, took the time to find pieces that fit the way i wanted my rockwork to be done and it is easier to work with your tank when there is no fish so i just took my time and wanted to do it right, it is a hard hobby to have patience though, but gotta do it right.

on 6/22/07 my first fish(s) were a 2" foxface (which i still have), a 6" SFE (died 12/3/07) a red ocellated dragonet and a 4 line wrasse(killed by a huge bristleworm 7/22) and to be noted I do not keep records like i did when i first started
though now looking back I think i am going to have to do that again.
