Hi from Cape Town

Hi

My name is Dale and I'm based in Cape Town. Been into fish keeping for about 10 months now and still learning as I go along. The fish I focus on is Betta Splendens and had a few successful spawns under my belt already. Other than the normal VeilTail & CrownTail Bettas we get here, I managed to get someone to import HalfMoons and DeltaTails (my avatar is my one DT I have) for me. I have given breeding a rest at the moment as my primary interest has shifted from fish to aquatic plants Setups I have are as follows:

2 X 1.2m (std)
3 X 1foot
4 X 2foot

As mentioned, I am mostly into planted tanks now as I find it more interesting than fish.

Well that's me for now...for any Betta questions, please feel free to shout

Cheers
Dale

 

wow! you really have expanded your tanks since we last spoke! i have 6x1.2s at the moment but only one is setup.

Please post some photos in the tanks section... i cant wait to see

 

I actually down scaled a bit cos I had one or two more tanks standing in places in my apartment where it really shouldn't

I'll be posting some pics tonight when I get home

yo! i have space in my fishroom for more tanks/stands if you want to come setup a few here....

 

Shot, i might be getting two more 2foot tanks...will bear your offer in mind if I do. At the moment, I think I might only have space for one small 1foot tank

 

Welcome solex69!

 

cool cool - i got 4 or 5 2ft and 1.5ft tanks in the fishroom thats not even setup... let me know

 

Thanks ZebraPlec & Admin Looking forward to building up the community here. Hopefully by tonight I'll write up my Betta spawning methods/recommendations for reference.

Henk - I see we are actually quite close to each other...maybe we can hook up at some stage
