Help a newbie

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I put the 2 Algae eaters in a week ago now. So i thought I would give them a little time before adding more fish. Probably next week I will nip up to timperly and see there stock. Silver dollar fish are nice. I will keep a look out. Have you posted a pic of your tank on here? I am definitely investing into a bigger tank. People on here have me inspired.
 
Yeah best leave it a little longer before adding more , I'm after a few big silver d's to add to mine probably have to be what someone's brought back into shop because outgrown there tank Urmston aquatics usually have a few big fish in store from that .
People on here will have you turning your house into a giant tank mate some of there setups are ridiculous lol
I've got a few setups myself I've got a breeding pair of jaguar cichlids that are evil :D
I've also got a couple more growout tanks with cichlids in , and my main big tank that has my jardini arowana , catfish and various other oddball fish in it
I posted a video yesterday of my big tank on my jardini thread
 
Here's a link to my jardini thread Chris , if you got to last page there's a few pics , vids of my new setup I posted yesterday , there's quite a few of my previous 5ft one too (bit of inspiration for ya ;):D)
 
Yer me too it's pretty ruthless though and not very good for your fishes diet , few crazy videos on YouTube of them eating all sorts , I've been keeping aros for nearly ten years now , jardini for about eight (slightly obsessed hence the name )
 
Depends how large are you thinking ? And brand new ?
 
Well you've got quite a few options , ive found some great deals second hand in the past there's always loads advertisements on e bay , guntree manc , preloved manc and my personal favourite aquatics classified (I look for bargains daily under Cheshire , greater Manchester and Lancashire )
There's also the option of buying new either with or without the stand , I recently bought a brand new 6x2x2 just glass tank and sliders and built the stand myself reasonably cheap and much much stronger than a bought one (only prob I gad to wait weeks for it to be built and delivered :( )
I got decent quotes from rivermonsters.co.uk and seapets.co.uk , but in the end I git my mate at world of water to price match those and get it from his suppliers ;):D

If you let me know what size your thinking ill keep my eyes open for you Chris , 5ft , 6ft Bigger , what you thinking ? theres a few on aquatics classified at the min
