Regular Member fantailfan1 Posted January 5, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted January 5, 2012 Well it has been a long time! I kinda got away from GF for a while--mom with advancing Alzheimer's and a sister diagnosed with breast cancer will kinda lower your GF on your priority list. Not to mention 2 growing kids (now 10 and 8 1/2) AND we got the most adorable puppy in March 2010 (she's not a puppy anymore--she'll be 2 in a couple of weeks). I will have to post pics of her at some point but as some of you may remember I am quite technologically challenged and will probably need my husband to help me post pics . . . I guess I didn't totally get away from GF. I had my 90 gallon tank and just became overwhelmed with it and all of it's filters and UV sterilizer, etc. Once I was down to 2 fish, I took the tank down and put them in a 20 gallon long. They probably were thinking "What did we do to deserve this?!" Now after about 1-2 years of that tank I purchased a 40 gallon breeder and am in the process of getting it set up--ordered another filter, background, glass top, etc. I expect to set it up in a couple of weeks. I'm excited. I cannot believe the changes on this site! It looks terrific. I hardly recognize any names and haven't noticed lots of my favorites! I'm looking forward to getting to know many of the people who have joined since I disappeared. Glad to be back! Lisa 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Trinket Posted January 5, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted January 5, 2012 hey Lisa. I remember you well, welcome back There are times when goldfish have to take a back seat but the hobby has a habit of biting back, so glad to see you back with it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member fantailfan1 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 6, 2012 "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave" Ah, I'm listening to Hotel California now . .. . Thanks for the warm welcome back! I need to get the background and then I will set up the tank. Then I'll post some pics. Now I'm off to read more topics. I feel like a newbie with all the great questions out there. And the tank and GF pics are gorgeous! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member kortniee Posted January 6, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted January 6, 2012 I think I remember you! Maybe. I think so...! My head doesn't really work after I've worked the evening shift. I left and came back too. Welcome back! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
