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

Hello - Taking time out from the air show to make my first post!

I have a small 54Ltr Tank which came with Aquael ASAP300 internal filter and heater. I've since added a small secondary filter to the tank. I decided to establish a planted tank for a few months before adding some fish. Current inhabitants are 6 blue danios, 4 phantom tetras and some nerite/malaysian trumpet snails. I do a 25%-30% weekly waterchange and clean. The water tests all good so far.

I've attached some photos below (not the best) tho really hard to photo the danios as they move so fast all the time. Would like another tank in time - either bigger or maybe a shrimp only tank.
