About Yourself: i've had this tank for about 8 years, tore it down in april 2007 to replace plastic frame around the top and recalked. set back up in may 2007. all fish and plants are thriving. this is the first time i attempted a planted tank. i got into aquariums because of my father, he's always had a fish tank.
