I'm a fish person too!! Usually with chips and a spring roll, sometimes I have a hotdog.

Nah Col', you got it all wrong. A Lasagne Square and Chips, with Worcester Sauce, commonly known as 'Black Sauce' in our household.

And no Julie, I'm not a fish person. I'm allergic to anything out of the sea. Quite handy too, 'cause I don't even like seafood either.

Im a fish person!

Have a community tank with plants and CO2 injection system etc.

How many litres is the tanks? ALWAYS put your tank across several floor joists as opposed to along one!

I made my own stand and forgot to put in diaganal supports... result? tank on slight lean, then bigger lean... then split tank and flooded lounge! woops!

that was a few years ago though

older and wiser now

If you ever need any fish related advice... PM me

Been keeping all sorts of diferent setups for years ay, thinking of a rebuild and setting up another Malawai tank, their lots of fun :P

Sweet these guys are used to the rivers not the seas.....Did you not know that you can have fish that dont live in salt water

Sorry I am just joking

And warm water too
