This digital representation of my fish room is (for now!) focused on wild bettas and gouramis, two closely related genera of fish species within the suborder Anabantoidei. In layman’s terms: wild fish species that are able to breathe oxygen directly from the air, thanks to their lung-like labyrinth organ.
I am a life-long enthusiast of nature and all living things, and a relative newcomer to the aquarium hobby. Nevertheless I have packed quite a number of personal accomplishments, mistakes, exciting discoveries, and lessons learned into my first year as an aquarist, and would like to share this knowledge with other hobbyists.
