| About Yourself: |
it ill started with frederick the goldfish from the fair(now happily donated to the botanic gardens as he grew too big) about 4 years ago who lived in a tiny bowl i then moved upgraded to a 2 foot tank keeping neons, danios and other small fish although hector plector (plec) grew to 13 inches long before sadly he had to be rehomed as he was too big and it didnt seem fair to keep him. i now have got my 4 foot tank which i love, my fish seem to aswell. it has been going since 17/09/09 |

| About Yourself: |
I have switched from african and south american cichlids, to more docile fish, yes i know discus are cichlids, lol well i am more than just dabbling these days in planted aquariums, lol anything worth doing is worth doing right and with your foot to the floor so to speak, patience is key but don't be afraid once you have a properly cycled tank to add as many plants as you can properly sustain. |
| Advice: |
read, read, and read some more, don't go into anything blindly, the more knowledgeable you are the better off you are going to be and the less money you will waste. take your time and work up to it! |
| Fish Kept: |
discus, angels, tetras, cory cats many variety, fresh water clams, fresh water flounder, snails, algae eaters, danios,fw dwarf puffers, german blue ram,neons, and a few other misc fish from another tank i had setup. |
| Plants Kept: |
plants are now all live!!
anubias nana several, several dwarf lilies, lace swords, moss balls, 2 mother amazon swords, many many babies from them, baby tears, dwarf baby tears, java fern, java moss, spiral crypts, red and green crypts, money wart, cabomba, cherry hedge, onion plants, several other misc plants, micro swords, fox tail red and green, no names for them, all totaled somewhere around 70 diff plants in my tank (not counting the baby swords) if i were to count them it would put me over 100 live plants in the tank. lol is the plant to gal ratio 1 plant per gallon? LOL ok sorry just had to do it. |

| About Yourself: |
We're a dedicated, enthusiastic team of young designers creating tropical environments. |
| Advice: |
Always ask yourself...will the fish be happy in the environment i have created? We always aim to create a natural environment to replicate the habitat of the fish we keep. To keep the wide variety of fish friendly and relaxed we ensure all fish are comfortable and safe within the community. Natural plants, driftwood, moss and sand must be carefully arranaged to recreate a real life riverbank. |
