Hi,
John Howell who has managed the forum for years is getting on and wishes to retire from the role of managing it.
Over the years, he has managed the forum through good days and bad days and he has always been fair.
He has managed to bring his passion for fish keeping to the forum and keep it going for so long.
I wish to thank John for his hard work in keeping the forum going.
With John wishing to "retire" from the role of managing the forum and the forum receiving very little traffic, I think we must agree that forum has come to a natural conclusion and it's time to put it to rest.
I am proposing that the forum be made read-only from March 2022 onwards and that no new users or content be created. The website is still registered for several more years, so the content will still be accessible but no new topics or replies will be allowed.
If there is interest from the ITFS or other fish keeping clubs, we may redirect traffic to them or to a Facebook group but will not actively manage it.
I'd like to thank everyone over the years who helped with forum, posted a reply, started a new topic, ask a question and helped a newbie in fish keeping. And thank you to the sponsors who helped us along the away. Hopefully it made the hobby stronger.
I'd especially like to thank John Howell and Valerie Rousseau for all of their contributions, without them the forum would have never been has successful.
Thank you
Darragh Sherwin

Hi folks.

It's goin to be a shrimp tank only once a can move some fish on.
I have red cherrys at the minute and want to get some, yellow shrimp, tiger shrimp and red bee(crystal red).
Would they be ok in a 150ltr tank once i check water, ph now is 7.
John

Once your water parameters are ok they will be fine also try to cover your filter inlets with tights so your shrimp don't wonder in and never return. Put some pictures up when your up and running

as paul has said once parameters are ok it should be fine to move them, if your using an external for this use a shrimp guard on the out strainer, otherwise wrap sponge or filter wool around the internal to stop them being sucked in, best of luck with it and just try to ensure if your putting in a mix that they cant cross breed

Hey John, most of the shrimp you have mentioned there will in fact cross breed:
