Thank you! I actually am doing both fresh and salt…couldn’t give up my fancies….we have a goldfish pond out back with about 16 goldfish (and counting…they decided to spawn over the winter) so if I ever decide I’m done with freshwater, the fancies have a home.

That's awesome - I would actually love to do a pond someday (if we had room) and keep a few koi. Not sure it'd work in Iowa though with our winters - would have to heat it somehow to keep from freezing. I have an empty tank sitting around that I'm thinking I'd love to switch to freshwater (I miss having a fw tank), or possibly attempt a seahorse-only tank.
