Hey! A bit about myself. I had a few tanks when was younger, tried a reef about 13 years ago (almost made it too), grow my own for medical reasons, now have a small tank with a garden in it. The reason I mention growing my own is that I think there are a lot of similar things. Growing in an enclosed controlled environment and keeping animals and plants in a tank are both attempts to create an environment that allows the inhabitants to flourish. I have had a 10 gal tank for several years with some guppies. They were happy, I was happy, things were simple and fairly regularly maintained. Then I decided I wanted to create a small "biome". Not strictly adhering to anything specific but a small group of plants and animals that would co-exist and Oh heck I don't know at this point... So to bring this around, I found this through the blogs and informative articles. They all made sense to me and seemed like what I needed to complete my "dream". So here I am. It is my hope that I have found a good constructive atmosphere for my aquatic explorations as I have for my indoor cultivation. Peace, BillyK

Thanks Appreciate the welcome. I'll be posting soon with my first questions and stuff like that. Speaking of that, I was of the mind to start a bit of a journal as I am used to calling it, where I can post about my journey of putting my little world together. Where should I start such a thing?
