Tannin Aquatics Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 At some point, as a hobbyist, we all have to make that tough decision. The one where we may not have all of the information that we think we need to have in order to reach what we've always regarded as a "good one." The one that makes us doubt our experience, judgment, or discipline. The one that may cause us to go out of our comfort zone. Way out. The one that requires the larger tank, the more expensive lighting system, the larger fish, the wild-caught one instead of the domesticated one...The one that requires us to embark on a path that everyone says is the tricky or "wrong", radical one, even though everything that we know tells us it's the right one to take... That point of departure from the tried and true is scary, invigorating, and often fraught with peril. Turning into the wid. Headed out to the uncharted waters, if only metaphorically. However, by treading outside of that well-trodden "mainstream" procedure or practice, we are not only casting off the "shackles" of "conventional aquarium wisdom", we're showing ourselves the confidence that we have in our own abilities. And maybe, just maybe, we're advancing the art and science of aquarium keeping. (click to read more) fishface 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
