About Yourself:
Started with a 10 gallon fresh water tank when I was 10 years old. Did that for 2 years. Didn't get back into the hobby until 18 years later. I had one 55 gallon fresh water and another 55 gallon saltwater FOWLR. Finally upgraded to a 180 gallon tank and gave away the other tanks to my relatives.

For many aquarium enthusiasts, the hobby begins with the simple desire to bring a piece of the natural world indoors, yet they quickly discover that the rhythmic swaying of aquatic plants and the gentle glide of fish offer much more than aesthetic appeal.
