swagman Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 just a small profile.I received my 1st tank xmas 1945,made by my granddad from 1/2'x1/2' angle and louvre glass.It was sealed with window putty and sealed with beeswax to stop the oil.Then him and I would go to the local swamp, catch mossy fish.Surprisingly they lived for about 8 months.1950 brought a stainless steel and aquarium putty.My great grandson has it now.After that as my tag says we have moved all over this great brown land and have seen ,heard many magnificent sights this land has to offer.Many tales to tell.
