Hi all!! I am glad to have stumbled onto an SA fish forum. I have had some experience with tropical fresh tanks tanks when I was a teen. My grandad used to breed all sorts of fish in his garage and and got me hooked on tropical fish tanks. He taught me most of what I know. I gave up on fish tanks 6 years ago and have been growing orchids in the mean time. But something fishy is going on here!! I have recently got my self 50L 120L and 500L tanks. The 50L and 120L is up and running. The 120L is a community tank while the 50L is in my 6 year old daughters room with a few die hard Jewel Cichlids. I can feel I might be getting fish fever:nuts:!! Then I will have a bit of a problem supporting two hobbies :blink1: Glad to be apart of this forum. Rgrds Bradley
Hi and welcome On a side note - you wouldn't have known, but Jewel Cichlids are all blacklisted species, so you aren't allowed to discuss them on TASA ^^;
Thanks for all the welcomes!!! Thanks for the heads up on the black listed species. If I new how I would edit the post I would change that? Where can I get a black list? Brad
If you haven't already seen them thanks to Gert Combrink, here are both the fish and plant blacklists. http://www.tropicalaquarium.co.za/showthread.php?3915-Freshwater-Plant-Blacklist&p=59017&viewfull=1#post59017 http://www.tropicalaquarium.co.za/showthread.php?78-Freshwater-Fish-Blacklist Don't feel bad that you have blacklist species - loads of us on here do. We just can't be allowed to discuss them on the forums because the site owner could get into trouble for allowing discussion of illegal things.
Hi Gert. Thanks for tip. I suppose I should have read TASA rules and regulations That is a loooong list!! I might be mistaken, but I think I came to check out your fish about eight years ago? I was visiting my family in Protea Hights near Bastion primary school and popped in at maybe your place close bye. Many many tanks in garage and another area.
