Marziya Shakirs Fish Tank
I bought this second hand tank from a good friend , and I nurtured it for Marziya Shakir who is on vacation.
It has plants all real, I give the plants CO2 tablets .. since a month but will now be using CO2 liquid from Nautilus Aqua Bandra .
Most of the plants fishes are from Nautilus and fishes and Amazons from Sweet Aquarium Bandra SV road..
The Albino frog is from Loony Dunes Juhu ..
The Ghost Fish Silver Sharks are from Chand bhai who has his pet shop near Khar Masjid SV Road.
The new overhead filter I got through Olyx almost brand new for Rs 500 Bayou.
In all I have 3 filters ..I spent Rs 500 on fertilizer pack from Nautilus.
I have mollies tetras barbs tinfoil barb denisonis .. guppies and suckers too..the mortality is almost nil..
I change 25% water every week .. I use tap water or well water .. I use a dechlorinator in the tap water ..

marziya shakir
5 year old
in the beginning
shot on the nikon
now a happy canon
user ..reborn
she does not
shoot golden glows
sunsets or dizzy dawns
it is beggars on the streets
desperate hungry forlorn
she does not shoot roses
only unborn thorns
street urchins know her
rich kids she scorns
the marathon football
ganesha festivals
durga pujas
bandras most famous
garbage porn
she shoots the same
things on and on
giving them a new
meaning a new hope
the bull by his horns

she shoots
mothers
children
on the
streets
begging
for alms
in the
sultry
heat
empty
stomachs
waiting
for something
to eat ..
faces hidden
behind the wail
hope deadbeat
seeing marziya
salawalekum
they greet
hijabs clinging
to their withering
bodies like
winding sheet

to understand

to life dead
lost emotions
our goal our
holy mission
our only excuse
