Newbie from Australia!!

Hi everyone!
My name's Casey, and I'm from Australia.
I started keeping fish at the start of the year. I originally started out with a community tank, it was pretty boring and I wasn't really happy with it. So I gave those fish to my uncle, who has a 4ft community tank.
I decided that I wanted to keep Cichlids, and so I did a lot of research and now have my tank how I wanted it and am very happy.
I have a 90litre tank, and it's home to:
6 Black Phantom Tetras
a male and female Apistogramma Borelli
2 male Blue Rams
a Black Ghost Knife- which I purchased pre-researching and so he will be going to a new home soon
and an unidentified Catfish, that I will be asking you guys in the ID section what the little fella is!
It's a planted aquarium with some driftwood and river stones. I can't wait for the plants to start growing a bit more, it will look much nicer then.
I've learnt a lot and am still learning, my main thing that I've learnt is to do my research and never just trust what the fish shop says. Most will try to sell you anything!
I ended up completely overstocking my community tank, because the fish shop told me I could.
Oh well, enough rambling- I thought I would pop over here and say hi!
So hi from Australia!!!
