Hey all you crazy Aquarist!!! My name is Tom... I have been involved with fish and aquariums for about 20 years now. ANd I finally found a reason to use those years of experience.
What I do is strictly on a charitable basis. Let me explain. I have a retarded twin brother 41 years old who lives in a group home enviroment, and I have a couple tanks in 2 different group homes. A 80 gallon cichlid a 55 gal. community and a couple 10 and 20 gal. but I am wanting to set up tanks in the other group homes for the younger children (great therapy for them) I donate everything to them and service them on weekends. Just my way of supporting the group homes for the mentally challenged.
So anything I can get my hands on, i graciously accept, be it from filters to tanks and even fish ect... They are having a new homes open in the next couple weeks and I just thought it would be great to do something for the new homes in allen.
Guys I can go on and on and tell you stories of how they help me set them up and service them and even naming ALL the fish, sometimes forgetting the names by morning they are naming them again. I hear stories from parents, and it takes them away from the TV and video games. IT WORKS!!!!
I can offer the names of the group home and addresses if needed, I just want to do more the other homes they have and opening. I can assure you it all goes to a great cause and the kids would appreciate anything that keeps this going.
