| About Yourself: |
Been in the hobby for almost 4 years. Aquascaping is my passion as well as the science. I now write for Practical Fishkeeping magazine and am their high-tech planted tank expert. I also moderate on three planted tank internet forums. Married with two girls and a dog. I currently service Harrier jump jet ejection seats for a living. |
| Advice: |
The internet is a great source of info with plenty of good forums. Be wary of the hear-say factor though. Listen to experience. |
