Retirement and forum shutdown (17 Jan 2022)

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

That's some fantastic list. No wonder you've been busy. I'll definitely call up and would love to get some Killis and rainbows. I've seen so much on that list that I'll have to get a new tank as well.

Hello there,

Hey yea i was wondering when you would surface again. I really enjoyed your visit can't beat the banter. I am glad you got such cracking specimens they will look wonderful in your aquarium as they do by the way ....nice photos. Yes we have just got in the biggest shipment of fish we have had in a long, long time nearly 40 boxes....the place is full with Peru to come in the next week or so, there will be a lot of specials on that one.....I will keep it a secret for now.

I look forward to your next visit. Keep safe.

Ian.
