[MaHaRaJa]

Allo all. I am joining this forum to get help and support to keep tropical fish in uk. I have kept fish in India. But in ponds. No I have settled in uk and looking getting back in to fish keeping.

Ill be doing up a fish tank and update here regularly. If you have any opinions please do let me know. Thanks.

Welcome to the forum, ask any questions you like, the only silly question is the one you don't ask.
 
I'm just going to move your thread to a more appropriate location

Can't wait to see pics of your new tank(s)

Do you have any ideas on what you would like to stock for fish?

 

[TallTree01]

Feel free to fire away any questions you may have.

Just out of interest, what did you keep in the ponds?
Do you have any pictures?

I saw the title and thought this was from someone in Russia, Scandinavia or Alaska! I suppose the UK is cold when compared to India though!

Wow.. That's fast. Thanks. Look like iam in the perfact place.

i kept many type of fish in the pond. From gold fish to cross back chilli red aros.

I am looking in to keep South American cichlids. And Some african catfish.

Don't be sorry, it's not a big deal at all. Hence the smiley winkey emoticon.

Yes you can say that. It's 37c in my home town chennai today. It rarely go under 30c. Nightmare to keep cold water fish. You need large chillers.

SA cichlids are always fun, are you looking at dwarves or the ' big daddy cichlids '?

 

[Supraman]

Oh cool I just switched to cichlids myself so I will follow this and watch your progression

Soft ones.. Discus and angels.. Will try other softies like severums. But will try to get wild imports rather then captive bread.

Silly captive bread. I'd rather go out and catch my own bread, makes me feel like I earned it. Just kidding.
What tank have you got/ are you planning on getting?

 

[MaHaRaJa]

Just Ordered a standard 6x2x2 . I am building the rest. I also started to researching on hardware.

 

[TallTree01]

Neat. Looking forward to pics I hope.
