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

Right now I have these fish tanks set up:
2 two and one half gallon (for killifish spawning or egg hatching)
2 ten gal (one set up with Pelvicachromis pulsher-Kribensis, the other is being used for snow melt/rain water storage)
1 Five and a half gal (set up for killies when I get them)
2 twenty gal highs 12X17X24 inches (not set up)
1 twenty gallon long 12X12X30 (not set up)
Please excuse the dirty appearance of the larger, unset-up tanks because I 've been lazy and they need to be clean!
For some reason the system wasn't letting me to submit this under "Member profile"...so I'll put it here. Also, here is a book I picked up cheap from Amazon.
I had given this book to my brother in 1976 as a Christmas present, but had never read it myself, so I decided to track down a cheap copy. $3.99 for the book plus 3.99 for shipping got it to me in three days for just under 8 bucks and the book is in fine shape to boot!

Ah yes the joys of keeping killifish.
Loads of small tanks, tubs and containers containing all sorts of foods, eggs etc...

Best of luck with it.
