Good day all,

Where to begin?
Ah yes, Compliments of the New Year to you reading this!

I always find it difficult to begin off on a new forum with an introduction of myself, but nevertheless, in a nutshell, I am a young adult, based in Centurion that has had some vague experience in fishkeeping as a child, but recently reignited a craze of fishkeeping through a series of attempts to house some goldfish outside.

For the little longer story..
It began a month or so ago by restoring a small 400L waterfall type of feature on my premises, with waterproofing, testing, adding filtration, aquatic life, and ultimately a home for some goldfish..

Whilst trying to ensure a sucessful project, this entailed purchasing a small 15L tank to house the small goldfish while the pond cycled, and thereafter this small tank became a home to some guppies, which unbelievably multiplied in the store packet upon bringing it home..

Fast forward some time..

I now have 3 tanks,
- A 45L Tank housing some adult guppies,
-The 15L mentioned above, housing the guppy fry (currently)
-a 12L tank housing some Cherry Shrimp and a culture of Daphnia.

There are also some non-tank, but housings currently operating a part of my setup, with an 85L storage container holding plants and daphnia, and some variety of plastic containers around the property either growing mosquito larvae, curing driftwood or whatever my mind wakes up and tells me to place for some odd reason..


And lastly, in terms of setup, the abovementioned dreaded green pond which begun this craze..

But yes, I do look forward to joining in on the forum to gain and provide insight where applicable to this awesome field.

Cheers
