    Hi @Kev777 welcome to the forum. One of the best places to share and learn from like minded people, in one of the best hobbies in the world. (In my opinion)

    Anyway I can very much understand how you went from 0 to 7 tanks. Once MTS takes hold thats it and you are hooked!!

    Looking forward to see more pics and here more about your tanks etc...

    Thanks everyone. I will definitely try to go through the forum over the weekend. Very excited to see the wealth of experience that is shared. I am eagerly helping two ex-aquarists to remove their tanks this weekend :). I will slam the brakes on after that and focus less on the hardware and more on the hobby/passion/addiction. I am going to need some ideas, but will get to that once the tanks are cycling

    So in March i committed to give an update :)
    I have now gone from 7 tanks to 44 with 2 sets being racks. Although the lockdown is bad in most instances, i managed to use this time to start breeding. I have bred angels, bristlenose plecos, red jewels and bronze corys so far. i almost had Apistogramma fry, but i think i may have bothered them. They need to move to a tank soon where their environment has lots of hiding and caves. Thanks for all the good wishes when i started up again, my tanks are very blessed. Now i have a lot of bronze corys to sell and in a few weeks i will have koi angel fry. just waiting to unlock my ability to post in the classifieds. oh yes, and obviously the neo shrimp are also breeding like crazy and some livebearers too. Enjoy the start of level 3

    @A new day Thanks and i see the restrictions have been lifted, i just didn't stay up to date. Fish room is pumping, i just have to focus on getting the air pipework done to final state, finish the lights and then do the cable management. big job, but once it's done, it will be maintenance :)

    Hi @Kev777, welcome to the forum! You some really cool setups there. I'm sure you have a lot of knowledge and wisdom to share.

    Why not make a thread for your main display under Members Systems?
