Going to my mates funeral! :( Said in his suicide note " Simon you knew this was coming" which I didn't unfortunately, christ knows what was going through his head :(

Never seen those before, they look stunning. I love the idea of this set up too I bet its an interesting one

Extremely sad news I always remember Byron for his brilliant contributions and postings when I was a mod on here back in 2010 or so Cancer really sucks :(

It shouldnt be stressful at all and your fish should live long lives in your tank. You will always get the odd death here and there but if the tank is running properly then they should live fine and in good health. You have done the right thing asking on here and its a great hobby that the...

I prefer Jeff Buckleys version but a great song whichever

My favourite post in a long while! How cool :)

Glad you found him I hate losing a fish you dont actually see disappear.

I have three and they have quick growth for a year or so until about 12" then it seems to slow down. My three are about 16" , 12" and 13". they are big fish with big mouths and in my experience very predatory but easy to keep

Welcome to the forum Your tanks look brilliant but I particularly love the look of the bigger tank

Do you mean saltwater clams? I have a Deresa Clam in my little reef?

Cheers the Dat is a relatively new addition after searching for one for a while and he's already a favourite he follows me up and down the tank when I walk around the garage he is so cute

I did, I didnt love the look without it althought it is easier to clean I wish I had bought darker sand. The rays do love it but they make such a mess of it I've got the boarding under the sump supported but I guess at some point I need to take it apart and do it properly

They're huge, far too big for home aquarium I think but a load came in to the UK last year. I saw them in the zoo at Washington DC and you're right they are massive

Couple of updated pics

Never seen or heard of those before but look a cool thing

Never kept Red Heads but I kept three Altifrons Geos that looked perfectly happy as a three

Enjoyed that thread its a great little set up you have. Will look superb as it grows and as you add a couple of extra fish

The first two discus I got in Feb I think now or late January spawned on Friday. Eggs looked viable but I have done my water change today and cant see them anymore. I am not looking to breed as I did that in the past with these I added as well a couple of weeks back a bucket of fish I was...

any update on the eggs?

Interested in this tread as I love these fish but just dont have a tank with cool enough water for them. Read how people have bred them in the past. I hope you have that kind of luck

Thats what I thought with the size and being on the glass but I assumed there are no corys in there

Be cool if they are. I was of the opinion danio eggs are tiny and shrimp tend to keep their eggs around them and are tinier again.

The problem I had was I had made the slats on the weir bigger as I kept big fish in that tank prior to an upgrade, now that I was keeping small fish I was losing them in to the sump so I used some plastic mesh I use for bonsai plant pot drainage holes and glued it over where I had made the holes...

Thats what I found since I added a load last week. someone gave me a bucket full of cardinals so I have loads now and when I walk in to the garage they just look insane together

I don't keep count I did when there were less but now the tank is so busy I just count the discus

I've had sumps on my tanks for the last 10 years or so. I bought a 4ft grow out tank last year with canister filter and I found maintaining a canister filter again after all these years a real pain in the backside. Saying that I am keeping small fish again and plants for the first time since I...

The more you get the more impressive they get as they get a bit bigger. I have added a load to my tank last week and gone from 10 to about 50 and it gives off such an impressive display even though they are small fish

I've started keeping tetras again after an absence of about 7 years. I have returend to my old favourites rummy nose and cardinals. I have about 50 cardinals in my tank and in my opinion they are as eye catching as any other fish in the hobby

It looks like the baby riccordea Yuma I get next to the bigger Yuma

Oh dear poor thing doesnt look great. Hopefully just from the attacks. I had a silver aro that went like that because of the attacks from the asian aro

This is Frank my staffordshire bull terrier. He is 4 in May, first time having the breed and I will always have one now I think. He is daft as a brush, lazy, loving, vocal and pretty much like my shadow. We lost our other male dog Enzo last July aged 5 with cancer so Frank has lost his play mate...
