Itīs only common sense but common sense is not that common |
| Advice: |
Take your time before getting into this hobby. Read books and make sure you get the right equipment from the beginning. Knowledge will save you a lot of money and headache in this wonderful hobby.
The most rewarding part of this hobby for me is to be able to breed marine fish. I breed the Banggai Cardinal which is a great fish to start with and this species is sadly also threatened in nature because of our hobby.
Happy reefing! |
