Framboos

Hi there! I'm actually using my Axxie's name as my username, so her name is Framboos.
I actually rescued an axxie from a petstore (he'd lost all his limbs to his tank mates and they were going to "remove" him from the stock but I said I'd take him), but unfortunately, being the newb I was he didn't last very long (small incident involving the cannister filter, and priming and well... Smush).
But by that point I'd already ordered 2 more to keep him company (I have a 20 gallon tank which used to hold fish until they got dropsy, I cleaned it thoroughly before introducing my axxies and I do intend to upsize once they're larger). The company ran out of melanoids but they refunded that and still sent me the albino I asked for, and that became Framboos (her name is dutch for raspberry according to google translate. Why? Cuz her gills are the same pink-red colour as a raspberry).
I'm still fairly new at this whole business, but I think I'll learn pretty quick.
