Forester,
Oh, yes. The aquariums were in my room, so I would wake up every morning to lit aquariums full of pretty fishies and lots of green plants. It made me very happy. I miss it. I had to give up fishkeeping so I could go to university a long way away from home. I am thinking about maybe starting again after summer comes and goes. It gets very hot here, so starting with new fish in summer, very bad idea!
It would be very cool to see water plants here. Maybe water hyacinth, corkscrew vallesneria, water wisteria. Java Ferns, too. I had a dozen of Java Ferns, and I kept getting baby plants from my adult plants! One spring, I had so many, I had to take some baby plants to sell to the fish store, I just ran out of room. Heh.
