Hello From Midlands Uk

[Indra]

My name is Indra and I'm from the UK. I'm addicted to my tropical fishtanks, due to space and money being not as readily available as I'd like them to be I can only have 2 tanks but I really enjoy keeping them. I have a Rio 180 and a 65L with a variety of freshwater community fish, I'm currently saving for a pair of bristlenoses for my bigger tank.

That's me in a nutshell!

Hi Indra!
What type of fish do you keep?

 

[Indra]

I think I've managed to list them in my profile, I have:

Rio 180 -
* Harlequin rasboras
* Bentos tetras
* Albino corys
* Gold gourami

65L -
* Gold white cloud minnows

 

[TallTree01]

Bentos tetras? I have not heard of them before. Can you post some pics of them so I can have a look?

That's them, you may know them by one of their other names....

 

[TallTree01]

Oh. They're nice. I did know them by a different name.
Can't remember what though....

Very nice! 

How long have you been into fish keeping?

 

[Indra]

Not had these tanks for very long, about 6 months, but I knew I wanted fish for so long. I was lucky enough to get the 65L bought for my birthday and a month later I couldn't resist and bought the Rio. Got a fabulous deal on it, a year old tank for £80, I just had to snap it up.

I had the usual goldfish as a kid, improperly kept by parents due to lack of knowledge etc. etc. I'm just glad I've done things right this time!
