Ever since i was a kid ive had a fascination with fish and wanted a fish tank for many years. Never really understood people only having fish for a few months or so and getting bored or disheartened then shutting down and selling their tanks on etc.
I finally got round to joining the hobby and getting our first fish tank back in march this year and i must say i loved all the research and setting up the tank to make the best environment possibly for our fish. Enjoyed it so much that i then went and got a second larger tank.
I have got to say tho the last couple of months havent been the best in the hobby for me (made a mistake and paid for it) and ive questioned myself whether i wanted to carry on. I now know why people can become disheartened and pack things up.
Im still very much invested in the hobby. I need to care for the fish i have the best way i can still.
Anyway ill stop babbling on and there is actually a point to this post.
I think there is alot of misleading info in this hobby and this can cause problems for newbies in fish keeping. I only hope more people find forums like this one because its been a huge help for me.
This forums fantastic and the members on it are a credit to this..
Byron, Colin-T, Deanasue,Essjay,Fishmanic,Seangee and MANY more have been so helpful it makes the hobby that much easier knowing there is knowledgeable fish keepers willing to help.
So a big to you all
God bless ya
