About Yourself:
I got into the hobby originally because my old man had an empty tank built into the wall when he bought this new house, which had a painting covering it up. I eventually convinced him it was a good idea to put some fish in it as long as i looked after it....
This wasn't too long ago - maybe November 2007 - since then i've swapped so many different fish with mate of mine, i cant keep up! But i think i've settled with these lil Fronts - good looking lil suckers =)
I have 2 tanks - the smaller 90ltr and a larger 150ltr (the one in the wall - although it LOOKS larger than 150ltrs when looking at the 90 next to it - although measurements and aquarium calculators tell me otherwise)
The larger tank houses 7x clown loaches, 1x Sailfin Pleco and 2x red devils - a male and a female =)

Setting up a new aquarium is an exercise in restraint that many hobbyists, both beginners and seasoned veterans, find difficult to master.
For decades, the gold standard of the home aquarium was a pristine, crystal-clear box of water, often decorated with neon gravel and plastic plants that bore little resemblance to the wild.
Bringing a slice of the underwater world into your home is a rewarding experience, but as the hobby grows, so does our responsibility to ensure that our passion doesn’t come at the expense of the environments we admire.
