For as long as I can remember, I’ve surrounded myself with the bubbling and trickling of aquariums and paludariums. I’ve kept a wide variety of types of tanks and species and dabbled with breeding Fancy Guppies and African Cichlids. I especially enjoyed mouthbrooding species. I found their mating and fry-raising behavior absolutely fascinating. I’ve kept saltwater fish-only and reef tanks as well. I have always loved keeping aquariums and paludariums. Maintaining a miniature natural world in my own home never seems to lose its charm. I’ve kept all sorts of different species and types of tanks, from nano-aquariums to 50+ gallons. I’ve also enjoyed breeding fish and propagating plants and corals. Maintaining aquariums is a lot of work, but each tank is worth every second of effort that I put into them.
