Just wondering if there are any clubs or meet ups in the Cumbria area to talk about tropical fish keeping, or if anyone on this forum from the area that would like to see up a meet up and talk over problems and news.

I called at "North Lakes Aquatics" in Penrith today, very impressed, well worth a visit, good choice of tropical fish not so many marine, there was also a well stocked selection of pond fish and a huge selection of accessories for all fishkeepers.

Cheers Jeff.
