I know this is slighty off-topic... but I was sat watching my fish earlier and thought it's weird how far my fish-keeping has come in just one year!! I can still remember rushing onto this forum because my first tanks water had turned cloudy where I had added fish just one day after setting up the tank! :S

I can still remember my first water change, putting a mug into the tank and emptying water that way! It took about 2 hours to do a 50% change!! I think I owe my fish-keeping love to this forum! If this forum didn't exsist then I very much doubt I would have 3 tanks now and I would probably only have goldfish! :)

It's great to think how far my knowledge has actually come too! I can now answer other people's question in confidence, actually knowing what i'm talking about!! Certain members have been really invaluable to me! Wilder, the-wolf and Annastasia probably the most influential, but really, anyone who helps is much appreciated!
So, just one year down the line and here I have a thriving tropical tank, a difficult-to-keep Brackish tank and brilliant goldfish set up! :good:

One year ago I never thought I would be chopping up bloodworms and tubiflex!!

It's brilliant and thanks again to everyone who has helped me!!


.......... sentimental message over... now pass me a bucket, i'm going to be sick!!
 
lol, without this forum, I would have no fish...

Originally I did actually come to spam (a bit stupid lol) then I realised I like fish, joined and got loads of info :D
 
same here, ive been comeing on ttf for 2 years now, but have only been a member for just over 1 year, but ive learnt so much and are very happy to be able to help newbies to this brilliant hobby. :D
 
TFF = Brilliant :D
I have recieved excellent advice and information from this forum. Couldn't live without it! :good:
 
wow! it's been one year for me too! and i ALSO have 3 tanks now! and i'm sure we have all rushed to this fourm at one time . i know it's saved me a few times!

A very worth wile topic!

Thanks Everyone !
 
Me too- it's a year and a half since my daughter and I sheltered from a rainstorm in Pets@home and started thinking about maybe getting a fishtank again... Now I am the proud owner of 4 tanks and the 4 volumes of the Baensch aquarium atlas! I have learnt SO much in this short space.
 
aww bless, yeah this forum's great, been keeping fish for yrs but i've learnt loads since coming on here a few months back. And I'm making some great new friends too :good: ha ha

also this forum's not helping my mts at all..... had 2 tanks when i started posting, 6 now :rolleyes: bah
 
LOL! Yup, I know the feeling where you read a topic about another fish and you think.. I might make room for one of them!!

ha ha yup, or someone say's they're selling or giving away soemthing you want.... but you need another tank to make room for them :lol:
