Started with fish when I was about 9, have stayed with them for most of the intervening 5 decades. Enjoy DIY, making my own tanks, filters, etc. Spent many years with marines, reptiles, etc. but now strictly freshwater.
Can usually keep any fish successfully; can usually kill any plant given enough time.
