Who is this person bringing such useful information to us?

Took my non computing self a moment or two to work it out. Once I did, great info! Thanks for sharing.
Lol! I found this resource only today on Facebook when I joined a Biotope Aquarium group. Its pretty amazing isnt it? I know there is a lot out there that will be helpful to us, but will take some time seeking out those tools. :)

Absolutely. It's a great starting point for finding the information and more details. Simply giving the name of a water zone such as dambo would help many people not from Africa knowing this word.

This shall be consuming a few hours of my life in the upcoming weeks.
