    Mustache Cat

    I don't think they're all that rare in the UK. I've seen them for sale in both Leicestershire and Northamptonshire. Lovely fish. :)

    Different Test Kit

    Pets at Home sell it for a very reasonable £16.99 for the master test kit. Most LFS charge at least £20 in my experience. Hope this helps further.

    Trilogen 190 Jewel

    I think that's a bit overpriced personally. I got a Juwel Rio 240l for £299 which is 50l bigger. See my comments and those of other people under the posting about the Rio 400 thread. Juwels all run in the same way. I was presuming that you meant the Trigon 190l by Juwel.

    stock a 75 gallon freshwater

    I'd do pretty much what my 240l aquarium holds, which is lots of plants and small peaceful shoaling species. I've had a lot of set ups and found the well-planted community to be the most rewarding and interesting. Lots of Rasboras, small Catfish, different Tetras, you know the type. What are...

    Hello all!

    :) Hello to you all. Just thought I'd post and say a bit about myself. I've been keeping fish on and off for about 15 years now. I've started up again fairly recently, and set up a 240l peaceful well-planted freshwater tropical community aquarium that so far (touch wood!) is coming along nicely...
