If I have the willpower to avoid making a sexist-pig type comment about this thread; I can do anything! I just wish I had some bad habits; because I now know I could fix them.

I was going to say something about the chit-chat; but I'm just as bad.
I know what you mean though, breeding cichlids is a great hobby; but most just don't produce enough offspring to make selling in quantity (to a wholesaler) worth it. I had several pairs of breeding Julies when I was breeding Angelfish (FW) for almost 15 years. I only had about 10 pair of breeding Angels and they would spawn almost constantly. There was an angelfish virus around for several years and I could sell small Angels in incredible numbers. I delivered/shipped the Julies at the same time. This hobby paid for all my SW addiction and my oldest daughter paid for her 1st car with the money she made helping. My fish room was an unbelievable tangle of pumps, hoses,mind-numbing contraptions,water, etc; but I lived in the deep south so I used a converted bedroom, had a concrete floor, and just drained everything outside and it flowed into the bayou. If I had the time now, I'd start with clownfish, I was about to start when Katrina got everything....but it was fun and profitable while it lasted.

Well since I decided to keep the little boogers I went out and got a couple plants and cleaned the tank up really good. Then I snagged a couple angels and some neons for extra look in the tank.
The fake plants I had looked better then these real ones, but I guess they have to grow for awhile.

Ha, ha, that's why I have 8 cats. I'd find them and told my husband I'd find a home for them. I did all right!

Yea stray dogs seem to flock to me for some reason. I have had pit bulls, huskies, mutts, labs so many dogs over the years that I was able to find homes for.
Just the other day I was out getting the mail and these 2 huge labs come running up to me with no owners in sight and no tags. I told them to go away before I make them my next pets.
