hello everyone,

still one of my passions, Aquascaping and fish predators in South America. I stopped this passion because of a move but I will resume in early 2011 Aquascaping

here to start my tank is 450L planted in 2007

My plans are on hold until I get my own property ;)
 
Beautiful, though I'd expect nothing less with your artistic eye. ;p
 
thank you ^^

My favorite predators are the leaf fish and the snowflake moray.
