When I was 6 years old, I started with a 12oz glass bottle with a male fighting beta...few months later I upgraded to 1 gallon vale for a pair beta and breed them....few weeks later upgraded to a 20g vale to keep beta frys...few years later I dug up my own pond 10x5x2 meters long right behind my grandma house took me 2 summer time (after school out) to completed it to breed giant snakehead...Moved out of my country and got busy trying to adapt new world life for few years then come back to my hobby with a 55g guppies, mollies, sword tail community tank for a year then upgraded to 100G tank for a pair of Jack Dempsey and breed them for few years, upgraded to 125G planted tank and keeping cichlid to now (I'm going back and forth between African and CA/SA Cichlid but I felt in love more with CA/SA...I'm not expert I just quite hardcore into keeping fish for fun and passing time!
