Greetings all.
- And let me start by saying thanks to all for the welcome I have recieved on this board, and a thanks to Phil for making it possible. Great job, and I really mean this!
(Insert flower here!)
The very first time I saw a dart, it must have been some 20 years ago. It was held in a very small "box", not worthy of being called a enclosure. And I felt most sorry for it... It was a Azur, looking like a precious stone. (!)
- Those who know me now, knows the size I am heading for...
My entrance to this hobby was making a sort of a indoor green house, second to put frogs in there as "icing on the cake".
Recently I recieved a PM saying that he was most impressed by the way we, the Europeans seemed to "go big, or go home"!
- I actually believe reason is for the plants, not trying to be better than anyone... Or, I don´t that is!! :!:
In another PM I was adviced to either choose a smaller viv, or some bigger frogs!
- But seriously...
Now don´t get me wrong, I am not trying to be better than anyone.
- But why are they kept in size view, as people do most... Average size?
Please have in mind that I am new to this, having 25 years experience aquarium vice... And working with marine biology, you can not go too big!!
What are thoughts with decision and recomandations of size viv??
- They will make use of it all, no matter how big they are... I don´t get it!
I hope to have a good debate on size. With thoughts, ideas and reason behind recomandations!
Thank you all one more time!
