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

Hi Craig :

Last time I went to Seahorse, I saw they had a few.
I had them before and they are super nice fish, they flash beautiful colors and relatively peaceful for a cichlid

Regards,

Santiago

Yeah to be honst they are relatively new to me say in the last year the only Tanganyikan cichlids I knew where the usual frontosa,shellie s ,tropheus but when I started really getting into the fish in lake Tanganyika I started researching more and more types and the xenotiliapa really caught my eye.

Very interesting and entertaining fish to watch and I'm really looking forward to keeping them.


Did you have wild caught ones of domestically bred

Craig

I had the tank bred which I prefer as they are not as demanding as wild caught, had a few wild caught fish and was not very successful with them :-( ... need more experience ! LOL
