Hi 1 Month ago  
Am I newbie to fish? No. Been at this since about 1972.

Am I newbie to fish keeping in Ireland? No. I know a few people in the fish-world scene here since I moved over a few years ago.

Am I in an Irish aquatic society? No.

Am I newbie to this site? Yes.

(In fact, I've never joined a fish-keeping forum previously)

So, Hi to all those who I know in 'the real world' of fish-keeping, 'Hi'to anyone from herpetological forums who i might know, and 'Hi' to everyone else who I may not know.

I still keep alot of fish....but I've been concentrating on herpetology over recent years, and am involved with the recently formed Herpetological Society of Ireland (and there is a few close connections between that and fish-keeping).

Hi Ian and welcome to the forum.
Are you more interested in reptiles or amphibians? Or is it both?

Hi ya,

My main interest would be amphibians, but I do love the old chameleons as well (I've got a few nice ones of them).

....and Old Fish tanks convert nicely to new frog tanks.

Hi and welcome to the forum. This might sound like "newbie" question but may I ask, what is 'the real world' of fish-keeping?

Let me tell you something you should already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But only if you let it.
