Anyone a fish-fan?

I've got a 250L with a Siamese Fighter, 4 Boesemani Rainbowfish, 40 Neon Tetra, 3 Bristlenose Catfish, 4 Otocinclus Catfish and about a billion red cherry shrimp.

250L! That must be a humongous tank. I envy your fish. :smile:

I used to have tropical fish :h:

I had guppies, mollies, sword tails, wag tail platties and 3 catfish.

I had a few more random little things, the local aquatic centre used to fish out any baby fish and put them in a separate tank so they wouldn't get eaten, and I used to buy them for 10p each and put them in mine.

I don't have them any more, they're all in my brother's tank instead. Mine's been empty for about a year and it's really gross because I haven't emptied it/I didn't know what to do with it. If it's still alright, I want to set it up again from scratch and get some goldfish instead :yep:

Hi

I was just wondering whether there were a few like minded fish-keepers here, who enjoy the hobby of keeping fish

If yes, then maybe we should have a society, and maybe post pics etc of tanks

regards

Yep, there are a few of us dotted around =)

I currently have 6 tropical tanks and 1 newt tank:

•

65 litre planted community - 4 neon tetras, 3 corys (bronze, sterbai, albino), 3 kribensis (albino male and two standard females), ghost shrimp and 5 female bettas (Aurora, Kiko, Amalthea, Li-Lu and Lilly)

•

65 litre planted community - yellow panchax, male kribensis, 2 bumblebee catfish, 2 male neon swordtails, blue phantom plec (all going in 3 foot tank in the summer)

•

60 litre divided betta tank - red/purple PK (Sen) and peach VT (Apollo)

•

54 litre divided betta tank - steel blue VT (Sirius) and red/green/silver VT (Goliath)

•

50 litre newt tank - 5 fire bellied newts

•

30 litre divided betta tank - marble butterfly delta (Loki) and white HMPK (Howl)

•

28 litre betta tank - peach dalmation VT (Azrael), 2 african dwarf frogs

•

14 litre QT tank - 4 juvenile neon tetras, 2 corys (need species ID)

When my partner and I are settled down in our own place (living with housemates atm) we'll be getting a 5-6 foot tank. Not decided whether I want a planted community or some larger fish like oscars, snakeheads and bichirs.

They're gorgeous :love:

I used to have a stunning halfmoon and crowntail but they both passed away recently.

The frogs are amazing, even if they do nip Azrael's tail when he is asleep, lol!

I've got a pair of albino kribs now, wooo! And a cockatoo apisto, although he's not really settling in very well. With two pairs of kribs (seperate tanks) and a "spare" female (not sure what I'll do with her :o:

) I should have babies on the way soon.

He looks like my first betta, Osiris. Poor boy passed away a couple of months ago.

I used to keep him with neons but one day the little gits turned on him and literally shredded his tail! It never really grew back afterwards because he became a tail-biter. I keep all the bettas in their own tanks, except for Azrael who shares with some ADFs and the females who live in one of my community tanks.

Remove the asterisks and correct the http part of the URL and that'll work.

Cool man, will do! :smile:

not due to get any , anytime soon... Thats cool, i dont remember that one, tbh i only read a couple of articals in the mag, while im on work exp lol... though, they are some pretty hard work. I do my work exp in a Aquarium which deal with the marines... Thats cool.. ever have a 'Donky Dung' (sea slug).. i think they are pretty awesome. Lion Fish are deffently my favorite.

I'd love a red sea max 250L but they are about £1,500! :eek:
