5.2 Mr. Aqua Shrimp/Cory tank



I have always loved fish and aquariums.  As a small child I enjoyed watching my dad who raised fish during the 1940's thru the early 1060's in Anchorage Alaska.  He would bring his treasure back from Washington State and the East Coast, raise and sell fish and plants to the local pet store.


My latest tank...soon to be a shrimp tank with tiny corys and a nerite snail.

Many thanks to Roy from the planted tanks forum for some lovely plants!
