“Oh…Fellman is back to being preachy again…”
No, actually, I’m being reflective, really, but if you want to call it “preachy”, well, ok. This is something that's been floating around in my head for a while after a deep discussion with a fellow hobbyist, and it sort of bubbled to the surface lately...
As Autumn unfolds, I’m getting ready for that most exciting of times for a fish geek: A new tank build! And, with every build comes the usual considerations: “theme”, budget constraints, equipment choices, aesthetics, etc., etc. And, with every build, us fish geeks tend to look at things as if this is our new chance to “get it right”, as if all of the previous tanks we’ve built were part of a buildup to this "ultimate achievement."

There is nothing wrong with self improvement. (click to read more)
