About me

I am Haomaru. I started to develop interest in arthropods since 2007, and have been keeping them for a few years. Along the way, I’ve added fish and geckos to my collection.

While I was trying to keep different species, I notice the information in the internet are quite scattered. Hence I have created this blog to share my experience and knowledge to help beginners who want to start keeping exotic pets.

If you find my articles useful and would like to support me to maintain this site, you can make purchases through my affiliate links in the articles at no extra cost to you.
