    Good morning all!

    Some of you noticed I jumped the bandwagon and began with posts without the normal introduction, well, here it is! :bigsmile:

    I live in Durbanville and find myself lucky as it seems the Cape is blessed with some of the better lfs and somewhat more fishkeepers (or it feels like it).

    Had tanks with all your basic fishies (livebearers, cory's, tetras) and have also bred kribs in the past. 3 years ago moved to the country, didn't keep fishies for a 3 year period, but with a recent move to Durbanville, I am now looking to get back into the thick of things.

    Got an awesome breeding setup from a friend, which I will fully complete and setup shortly, but in the meanwhile I am doing my research again and deciding what to keep. (Setup is a 3 level stand, 2 tanks of 50cm x 50cm x 50cm per level). Open for suggestions! Currently considering to start of with kribs and angels, and then progress to rams/bolivian rams/apistogrammas.

    Hope to meet a couple of you guys along the way! I am a very sociable oke!

    PB

    Hello and welcome. Hope you enjoy your time on the forum with some of us nuts?:bigsmile:

    Please post pics of your breeding setup. I'm busy with something similar and am interested to see how your system has been done.

    TIA
