About Yourself: I've had a tanks since childhood. Never a planted tank though. I am learning a lot and enjoying it so much. Our dinning room gets much more use now that we have a tank in it. My previous tanks always had aggressive fish in them. This tank is so peaceful and i enjoy it more. No more scared weak fish in the corner looking for a way out!
