I by far don't know everything!
I can not learn enough!
What i have learned has seen me through till now!
What I am looking to learn I hope will bring a better tomorrow!​
My name is Isabell and I have 3 years of reading about anything fish related... ive been caught watching all of the D-I-Y videos and methods i can. Grew a better understanding of "we are not just livestock keeper's we are water keepers" learn to keep water in its best condition for the item you dream of having. now your dream can be before your eye's.....

I started freshwater like most i assume. All that reading came in handy a year ago when i came across a 55g saltwater havoc bad water... everything was in buckets evaporation never crossed this guys mind...... he only used tap.... the the fish was so ill. a yellow tang was spinning at top of bucket sideways..... I got to rescue this tank for a $80 pc graphics card YAY!!!!!! I had to create in a hurry.... had a used 120g sitting in storage i was going to profit off resale. but time and money i didn't have. So i did what i could D-I-Y style everyday to make it better and better most of what i was able to get with 55g lived.. had failures and pushed through.... to make it what it is today....which last 2 months have been major upgrades...
Today it sits as a 120g with 40b D-I-Y Triton style sump also attached is a 30g nuvo fusion display and a 20g long below it all the same punch bowl... but here is where the story gets better i think i have a new method to bring water down to the sump full siphon "one final pipe down"----- i know you are saying i am crazy but i promise in my next post will be details about the overflow system for now I am gonna show off my tank
