    Aquariums in THE GODFATHER

    Hugh Grant starts About A Boy as a self obsessed man about town in his high tech bachelor pad feeding his solitary Betta. He ends it feeding his community tank surrounded by all the nice lovely multi cultural friends he’s made during the previous 90mins or so. Not the most subtle opening or...

    2024 NFL Discussion

    Read yesterday that yesterday was the first time in history that the Lions have been mathematical favourites to win the SB! Unfortunately the game is played on grass* and not on a carpet of pocket calculators**. *shows age. ** shows age again. Cmon the Lions.

    Heterandria formosa

    I noticed a tiny one when doing a water change at the weekend. I think there’s about 15-18 in the tank. With grey sand they can sometimes be difficult to spot but it’s good to see them still breeding in a community tank. They bred like mad in their species tank until the water company did some...

    Aquariums in movies and tv shows

    In the film About A Boy right at the very very start the character played by Hugh Grant is a selfish loner living in a Batchelor pad to die for. Which includes a huge aquarium and is first seen feeding its solitary Betta. I knew immediately what the closing scene would involve…..yes you’ve...

    Aquariums in movies and tv shows

    Awwwh Maan I loved Homicice. It was weird seeing some of its scenes been reused in The Wire by the same writers/producers.

    2024 NFL Discussion

    When the NFL was first shown over here in Channel 4s start up days in the early 80s (we only had 3 channels prior) most had to pick their team rapidly. Super Bowl highlight snatches had often been shown in 70s on sat afternoon sports tv shows as filler if an event was cancelled, cameras broke...

    I'm getting a ram! Any advice?

    White sand sort of reflects light. I’m no Ram expert but do they live in white sand areas irl?

    Sixty Gallon Journal

    Your tank prices over there are bargains compared to ours even at full price. A 2 year old Ferrari costs the same as as a 60G tank over here. Then there’s the lid at the cost of a low mileage Series 3 BMW Convertible that’s still under warranty…….inc a full tank of petrol and fancy...
