Hi all

anyways even though i set up my son a tank i was itching to set up 1 for myself lol after seeing the tanks on here it really inspired me to do an iwagumi i started going through the journals i have learnt alot but still much to learn.initially i wanted to do a large tank setup but thought il start off with a nano just to build my experience and learn before i go into the deep end.anyway i bought an fluval edge not the easiest of tanks to work with but its a challenge had to do lots of diy mods for lighting as the standard halogen lighting are very poor,got all the equipment together iv just spent 2weeks doing my hardscape ill be starting my journal soon so please guys as a newbie il be needing help and advice from you guys.thankyou
