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 there,



Just a quick update.

We have sturgeon in stock. One of my favourite fish and they make a great addition to your pond everybody should have at least one in their lifetime. Easy to care for as long as well fed, they are hardy and well used to our climate but will not eat algae as so many other shops will swear blind that they do....these are primarily sterlets so they wont get much bigger than 30 inches.....they diamond we have on the other hand is already that size and will continue to grow......for ever.....:-) i find a little bit of dramatics makes the day go smoother.....



We have goldfish in stock some cracking big calico ryukins......small koi for under €10.

We have a marine delivery arriving tomorrow or thursday, our quest to rebuild our marine stocks is definitely on i am already compiling next weeks order so this will make it four deliveries in a row it's just people keep buying them as they come in so it can be frustrating but a challenge ....look on the bright side Ian....
