    Hi everyone

    Just joined the site, im from Durban, found out about it via my cousins fiance who is a member here, i started getting into the hobby about 6 months ago(always enjoyed fish but never did anything about it) so thought i would broaden my horizon and join as its always great to meet new people, have discussions, help where possible and receive help from more experienced people then myself who still has a lot to learn.

    My current tank and fish setup is:

    10 Angels
    2 Spiny eels
    2 Leopard Catfish
    4 Parrot fish(temporarily in my tank for my friend i stay with)
    2 Blue Swords
    7 Apple snails

    Equipment:

    4Ft Tank, 240L
    2 Medium size heaters
    1 Cascade overflow filter 380L
    1 Dolphin 9w UV filter
    1 Long Bubble wall running across the back of the tank


    Just thought id share a bit of what i have and my setup, Soon looking into a new challenge, giving my current fish to my friend when she sets up her 540L tank soon. Im dying to get into discus (as challenging as it is im determined to do it, absolutely love them.)

    Anyways that is a bit about me and im sure we will all chat and get to know each other over time, make friends and have a blast on here.

    Kind Regards

    Jamie Mackintosh
