Quote: Man against nature..!
About Yourself: Love anything to do with fish..! From fishkeeping to fish catching..! I love fishing and I have caught many species of fish form the UK and France over the years from minnows to mirror carp over 30lbs. This tank started of as a coldwater tank with coarse fish, then became tropical marine, and then coldwater ornamental. and was always located at the end of my bed.

I have changed the tanks style many times over the years and 23 yrs later it is now a tropical tank.
