Tony_S Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Just thought I'd finally say hello! I'm a born and raised Calgarian, but now reside in Louisiana. (But I'll always be a Calgarian! :ml: ) Ive been an Aquafreak for some 25 odd years....so Ive got a bit of experience under my belt! Hopefully, I can offer some help where ever I can. My 'Expertise'...Is mainly in Discus, but ranges far and wide into other species as well. I'm Currently a "Discus University" Moderator at SimplyDiscus.com. We were just recently hacked, and are in the process of switching servers....So I'm killin' time, and happy to do it here!! All you oddball freaks would be in HEAVEN here in Louisiana....there's some WIERD A$$ stuff swimmin' around here!! Anyways....H'lo Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony_S Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 :welcome: Welcome to the site Tony. Just so you don't miss Calgary too much it was cold, damp, and foggy today. Thanks for the effort Vapor...but when it's 40+ degree's here, with 90% humidity...Cold, damp and foggy sounds like heaven!! LMAO! hey tony, welcome to AAla huh? you ever go noodling catfish? ever come across any asian carp out in the wild? been to ga,fl.....wish i coulda hit la. Hey Skin.. Nope...no noodling. I'm hesitant to even get INTO the water here...let alone ENCOURAGE something to bite me on the hand!! LOL!! Caught lots of Cats on rod and reel, and nets though!! Biggest to this date is just under 30 lbs. As for the Asian Carp...no to that as well. I haven't even seen one yet, although I know they're here! Lots of Grass Carp though. Not fished for intentionally, but caught a few in the 15-20 lb range. Louisiana is an amazing place for a 'Wethead' though! Just a SHORT list of the different types of fish my wife and I have kept in either the 4000 gallon pond we built, and or the 18 different tanks we have in the house.. In no specific order. (in brackets are the # of different types) Bowfin Gar (3) Grass Carp Flagfish (2) Cat Fish (5) Perch (3) Sunfish (4) LM Bass Crappie (2) Darters (2) Wild Sailfin Mollies Eels (2) Killifish (2) Mosquitofish Freshwater Gobies (2) These are just off the top of my head...I'm forgetting a lot! Herper's Heaven here as well...Snakes, Turtles, Tortoises, Lizards, Alligators....EVERYWHERE!! Thanks again everyone! Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
