About Yourself:
My grandfather was a keen aquarist. He had four large tanks at his place, I'm not too sure about their exact size but I know one of them is about 250 gallon and he kept an Arowana in it.
I started my own tank with my dad when I was still a kid for almost 5 years. But somehow we stopped having it for some reason I can't remember. It was pretty small tank, about 40 gallon.
Now after 12 years, I'm back trying to do it all over again. This time with a 85 gallon tank.
