well this is my first fish tank of any kind.... i was inspired to set it up by most of the awesome pics of other member's tanks iv seen on SWF.com.... its been setup since may of 2003 and it has been fun, lots of money and a very good learning experience... i still have a lot to learn and a long way to go.... but majority of my success is solely due to the help of fellow members on SWF.com so thank you all very much…..
