About Yourself:
I've cared for aquaria since I was 14 years old (that makes it 11 years of experience now). Started out with a small 5-gallon planted tank with plecos; moved up to 10, 30, 50 gallons (goldfish), then to 100 gal saltwater (but the hot tropical climate here in Manila proved difficult to handle without a chiller). Recently converted that 100 gal saltwater into this present aquarium.
Fish Kept:
Siamese fighting fish (Betta splendens), Zebra danio (Danio rerio), Black skirt and golden tetras (Gymnocorymbus ternetzi), Chinese banded shark (Myxocyprinus asiaticus), Guppy (Poecilia reticulate), Golden rosy barb (Puntius conchonius), Tiger barb (Puntius tetrazona), Red swordtail (Xiphophorus hellerii), Platy varieties (Xiphophorus maculates)
Corals/Plants:
Alternanthera reineckii, Cabomba caroliniana, Ceratopteris thalictroides, Echinodorus amazonicus, Hydrocotyle sp., Hygrophila corymbosa var. Siamensis, Hygrophila difformis, Ludwigia sp., Myriophyllum spicatum, Nymphaea pubescens
Tank Size:
100 gallons
Advice:
Do not trust 100% your local fish store employee unless he/she belongs to a reputable company or is a hobbyist him/herself. Read independently from aquarium books, or websites/forums online. Make sure what information you find on the Internet also comes from a reputable source and agrees with the basics of biology.

About Yourself:
I have only been into this for about 1 year now and I love it. It is so realxing to sit back and watch your fish swim around and play. This is one of the best hobbies I have ever gotten into.
Fish Kept:
1 turqoise severum, 1 marbled angelfish, 1 blood parrot, 1 ghost knife, 1 raphael catfish, 1 male dalmation molly, 2 female black molly, 3 strawberry tetra's, 1 blue mystery snail, 1 zebra danio
Corals/Plants:
Dead coral, fake wood, pink quartz, fake plants
(not that I don't like real plants, just don't want the up keep and extra equipment. I would rather focus on my fish.)
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
Figure out what you want before you set everything up and buy the fish. Don't be afraid to try different combinations of fish. As you can see, I have tropical community, agressive tropical, and cichilids, and they all live happily together :-).
