About Yourself:
Kinda dragged into it by a friend after amazed by another friend's small tank. Competition winner tanks simply blew me away and pretty much like to create such beautiful nature's tank.
Still a beginner ...... much much more to learn.
Fish Kept:
Puntius Denisoni, Harlequie rasbora, Espei Rasbora as main fish and other fishes.
Corals/Plants:
Anubias barteri nana, rotala, UG, flame moss and some other plant on test.
Tank Size:

Advice:
Set your goal clearly and works DIRECTLY towards it. Changing goals in between creates difficulty in almost every corner. Experience comes from patience and tests. The longer you're in the better you get. That's the truth !
