| Quote: |
Far better it is to dare mighty things to win glorious triumphs even though checkered with failure, than to ranks with the poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows no victory nor defeat |
| Advice: |
Persistence is key.
I have had more people than I can count tell me Im too inexperienced or too young or that it is too hard and I couldnt keep sharks or have a 300 gallon tank.
Be true to yourself!
Throughout the whole time I stuck to what I wanted not what other people wanted.
Set high goals.
If you want a huge tank or cool fish you have to have high goals. As soon as you compromise your dreams is as soon as you are going to not have the dream tank you want. |

| About Yourself: |
"FRAGS 4 LIFE" |
| Advice: |
I find the most trouble with fish but certain corals have been tough as well. Just choose wisely and research your purchases before hand. Try and find a shop that you like and feel comfortable buying from. I hate shops that push items on you before even asking what you need. |
| Fish Kept: |
24 gal-2 red eyed cardinals, and a lion fish (fire). Naserith snails, hermits, black crab, and cleaner shrimp.
12 gal-watchman goby, clownfish, pistol shrimp, hermits, and a cleaner shrimp. |
| Plants Kept: |
24 gal- 1monteypora, will update later |
| Tank Size: |

| Description: |
24 gallon nano, 70 watt light pod, built in fitration-pretty simple. This is the big sister tank to my 12 gallon nano. They are both live coral and fish aquariums.
Nano is simple and easy to maintain, my aquariums have done well over the last 2 yrs. I find the most trouble with fish but certain corals have been tough as well. |
