I really enjoy your videos, so nice to see honesty in the fish keeping hobby. I only have one small tank myself but still have mishaps from time to time, some caused by me and others defective equipment. Please keep up the good work.

I think we all start with that one tank which usually gives a lot of enjoyment.

Cheers from my fish room channel all the way in Chicago, where i am a subscriber to yours as well as an admirer of your tireless effort to maintain this lovely aquarium. PS: The Praecox is an excellent choice. I have a robust group of them in my main display.

You are so right, they are a beautiful fish and I was lucky to get a group of 6 a few days ago. They have settled in well. I will check your tank out.

Quite the journey

@bobsfishytails Месяц назад

Yes, certainly a learning experience !

I don't know if you have access to them where you are, but Rainbow Shiners would be happy in that tank.

@bobsfishytails Месяц назад

They are certainly a neat looking fish well suited to my tank and okay with my soft water but not available in New Zealand - I guess because they can tolerate cooler water and if got into the wild could compete withour native fish. - I appreciate the suggestion.

That's what's going to happen when you half fill the tank with rocks. Genius.

Without doubt. The point that I am trying to get across to others who may do a river tank is that even with the weight, the stand could not distribute it on a carpet floor - the tank would even wobble when pushed. A conventional stand design with a rectanguler bearer would I feel would be better suited to home use. Yes, a lightweight substrate support such as perspex might be the answer rather than stones, pumice and polystyrene.

Fish Update: I have decided that Neon Dwarf Praecox Rainbowfish should be a suitable feature fish, I can adjust temperature / to suit and a mix of sizes would be in keeping with a river scape - I am looking for a supplier now.
