Hi there, my name is Neville Murphy. Welcome to my site about tropical fish. My first tropical fish tank housed just one betta that we called Pip. My betta was a feisty fish who loved to posture at his own reflection. Raising this fish taught me all I needed to know to create and maintain a large tropical tank. After Pip lived out his life in a ten-gallon tank, I upgraded to a fifty-gallon aquarium for larger tropical species. I now have a lifelong love for aquarium species of all kinds. I will discuss aquarium care, maintenance and stocking techniques with you on this site. I will also share my knowledge about all of the different tropical fish available to aquarium enthusiasts. Please come by often to learn enough to start an amazing tank of your own. Thanks for stopping by.

Chocolate contains an ingredient called theobromine, which is a stimulant much like caffeine. Theobromine affects a dog's heart, kidneys, and nervous system, thus making them sick, and in some cases, even causing death.
