Hi!

Hi, I'm PC, new to fishkeeping due to lockdown. I have a 56l with 8 guppies at present (mad little buggers!), just ws

Welcome. Lockdown is a way to come into the aquarium hobby that's new. Guppies are a good starting point. They are very forgiving of small mistakes in fish keeping.

Hello and welcome to the forum @Back in the fold is correct, guppies are a very good starting fish, I have several and they can handle a wider set of conditions than most fish not to mention they are cheaper. Post a picture of your tank when you get a chance. This is my hard water fancy guppy tank. I call it the LOTR castle tank and is a 29 gallon tall tank.

I read the Hobbit when I was in Grammer School in the 70's and then the LOTR books when I was in Middle/High School in the 80's. I have all of the movies as well (extended version with the collectables... Gollum figurine, and the Gates of Gondor Argonath Stature Bookends, and others...)... Yep, I'm a geek!! And proud of it!!

I have the original 4 books. It’s really cool how the spines all create a picture.

Age is only relative.... If you want, it doesn't have to be relative to anything!!! Therefore, "Old" is meaningless!!

Have you read them? If not, you should... They are a little long, but so worth it...J.R.R. Tolkien is a genius.. My daughter did a report last year on one of the books when she was 14...and she Loved it!!

Nope, haven’t read them, lol.

My grandfather gave them to me. (I’ll make a thread and tag you when I do tomorrow, showing them off)
