Hello All, My name is Benji and I'm not really "from" anywhere.. but I now live in Calgary. I got right into aquariums when I had a group home for adults with developmental disabilities and used them as a form of environmental therapy. I'm hooked on mostly large freshwater odd ball fish but soon getting into planted. Anything smaller than a 90 gallon is a sump to me. Bigger the better. Hope to get a bunch of pics up and would really like to suggest a fish meetup perhaps.

Dear Santa...

pure awesomeness. I just did a 90 gallon out of some plywood and hardwood (birch and maple) custom stain and lacquer. The Lacquer I used I think leached into the water and killed my fish (for the canopy) . I let it stand for about 10 days and still surprised, stain and a gallon lacquer was about 150 bucks. High end stuff. Getting new stuff from another supplier and will test it out to, supposed to seal plywood better than anything else and eco friendly. Have you decided what you are going to do for the top yet?
