New On Here Just Wanted To Introduce Myself And My Fish.

[kris1978]

hi everyone, im kris and am 30 and live in somerset, i have been keeping tropical fish for about 10 years and have come across many problems and have always stuck with it, once a fish keeper always a fish keeper.
i have 1 big tank which is about 150 gallons, 5ftx2ftx2ft, in this tank i have

1 sailfin pleco which is about 18"
3 redfin cigar sharks about 12"
1 upside down catfish about 8"
1x 18" black shark
10 tiger barbs about 1 cm lol

ug filter with two 5000 power heads
one fluval 303 external filter
one ehiem 2213 external filter
arcadia lighting in a aqua one lighting holder
2x 12" airstones

i bought this tank 2nd hand and was in a mess when i bought it and wasn't looked after, but now after just alot of cleaning its starting to look alot better and all the fish are looking much healthier
it keeps me busy and i am so glad to give the fish a good home .

my wife also has a L3ftxw15"xh18" tank after i gave her the fish keepers bug and she just loves her fish, in this tank she has:

4x ballon mollys
5x male guppys
4x plattys
7x neons
5x glowlights
5x head and tail lights
4x gold tetras
2x angel fish
1x small 3" pleco
6x shrimps

ug filter with a aquaclear 802 powerhead
1x eheim 100w heater
1x 12" airstone
1x arcadia original light
1x arcadia moonlight bulb

this is a well planted community tank with some driftwood and is very peaceful to watch.
my wife is doing very well with the upkeep of this tank and is getting use to all the different diseases and treatments now, she has only been interested in tropical fish for about 2 months, so well done to her.
