Male Endlers fit the bill.

60L is way too small in my opinion. I’ve had them for years on and off but I’m phasing them out now as I’ve only got a 120L tank.

You’d be playing Rugby if that was true.

Recent Belgian squads will go down in history alongside the Dutch of the 70s and Hungarians of the 50s as the games greatest underachievers. I don’t know if their internal problems reflect the countries language split but there’s something not been right within the camp for a long time. A mate...

I have five Twitter accts, each for seperate interests. It wouldn’t be fair on followers of interest A having my musings on interest D clogging up their timeline. It’s just a shame that every other user hasn’t done the same. Ive dipped my toe into Facebook, Instagram etc and I’m a long term...

You’re cohosting the WC in four years time with the US and Mexico. Mrs Lurch and myself are considering coming over for it even if England don’t make it. We may also be at the woman’s WC in Australia and NZ next year. Both your boys and the US have some very good young players who will...

The US and Australia go home…….and then there were 14.

Watching the World Cup.

Welcome.

I’ll be shipping 50% out soon. They’re from Mrs Lurchs Endler population boom tank and have only been kept until they colour up enough for a lfs to take them.

Black. For U.K. posters “The Range” shops do good cheap picture mount black cardboard that stick well using gaffa tape.

Barnsley?

I personally wouldn’t do it if i had territorial or fighty fish. These days Endlers are at the aggressive end of the scale of fish I’m prepared to keep. No trouble wanted in the tank.

Me too. I rearrange driftwood, caves, plastic rocks, moss balls etc every time. Plus I’ve always a lot of anacharis etc which semi floats while tangled with the above changing the layout without trying too. It’s like they’re going on their holidays every weekend.

You utter utter swines* * to be spoken while channeling Terry Thomas.

No. You beat England in the 50s. A great achievement by your boys even though I believe only one of your boys was born in the US. You should’ve beaten England again last night. Theres been three WC Finals games between England and USA. One win for your lot and two draws. A shocking return by us...

England v USA in Doha, Qatar just kicked off. We’ve never beaten em in a World Cup game yet. Tonight’s the night!

Happy thanksgiving. It’s not a thing over here but a workmate brought in a bunch of mini sponge cakes in the shape of turkeys today made by his Mrs. Her sister is married to a tea destroyer and her contributions every year are US themed cakes. Lovely they were

Sorry.

Welcome. 3G is small no matter which side of the pond it’s on.

I wouldn’t be so sure about Co Durham water being soft. I was dragged up just a few hundred yards from the Co Durham border and ours was very hard. A regular poster in iirc the Peterlee area mentioned they live in an insanely hard water area surrounded by soft water. Also mentioned their local...

Welcome……..do you think you’ll stay up this season?

Welcome. Old Town, New Town, St Leonard’s or In Land? We used to live in the old town. My god The Crown has changed. Area manager tried to sell it to me about 12 yrs ago in the pre-hipster times.

I’ll be asking for outdoor WCMM advice around Easter time. Don’t hold your breath though.

Is the tank cycled?

A feller in Enfield was selling em on EBay a while back but sold up and went back to Poland iirc. He sold hundreds in one big last auction. Lot of sellers got them up for sale now.

The lack of knowledge of the wider world being shown on this thread by some US based posters is amazing. Especially on a U.K. based website.

Sorry to read this stuff. Make sure you keep your windows shut please. Motion detector lights aren’t madly expensive. We had some battery ones from eBay at our last house. I also bought MrsLurch a rechargeable motion detector wildlife camera from eBay for under £100. The problem with both is...

First would’ve been in 1967 or 68 according to my mam. She remembers it on a wall unit in the living room which was the first furniture she bought specifically for the house I was dragged up in.

Well yesterdays acquired Pygmy Corys X10 will soon be tucking into their first meal under this roof of frozen daphnia. Once the cube melts a bit that is as the Mozzie n WCMM/Endler tanks will be having the same. I’m having home made spinach-broccoli-goats cheese soup followed by pasta n home...

Your financiers, global retailers/manufacturers and multi billionaire space cowboys actually leave crumbs?!?! Wow. That’ll never catch on over here.

U.K. equivalent anyone?

No. Just make sure nothing dries out. Store plants, wood, rocks, filter etc in a bucket of your first tanks water inbetween tanks.

I just let mine wander wherever they like. Every WC means a new aquascape.

Nnnnnnnooooooooooo The bigger US mosquito fish perhaps? I can’t remember the name.

Welcome. Ive some of your carolina Mosquito Fish over here. Heterandria Formosa to be exact. Stick around. What this lot don’t know about fish the fish themselves don’t even know. I though know nothing.

Stop with the negative waves maaaaan.

Nnnnooooooooooo2. LFS won’t take em as fry so they’re being put into my 120L tank until they colour up or are recognised by sex. All this is preventing me pressing ahead wih converting my 120L to a mini fish only tank. I’ll keep some but as of now I’ve 3 WCMM left from a bunch of 6 and 20 male...

Nnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Plenty of Endlers here for you. MrsLurchs female Endler tank has just revealed another 20+ fry. The girls haven’t been near a boy for about a year unless their sneaking across her 8’ office desk during the night. When will it end? There’s been about 200 so far. @emeraldking please please tell...
