    Hi All,

    I have been a member on this site previously but haven't been active for a while. I have just moved house and due to some bad luck have lost most of my fish. So here is the new start. What I am going to stock will be a surprise. :blink1:

    I know, looks crap. Just give me some time. Will update on Monday.

    Cheers,

    Sorry to hear about your loss. Very curious as to what you are going to stock it with.

    The tank and cabinet has great potential. I cant wait to see the end result. I can only imagine it will look brilliant.

    @Breado Thanks
    @DarylA Sounds crazy, but yes cycled, Not in 3 days though. Levelled and added 50% water on Tuesday. Topped it up on Wednesday (I just don't like to add 100% water in a day, especially after transporting it). Added the wood on Thursday. I think I started this thread on Friday.

    Used 9 rainbow cichlids during cycle. They still in. Added 2 Frontosa and a Parrot yesterday. Adding more fish tonight. The parrot is just a visitor. Been keeping fish for a long time. So I am comfortable with a few shortcuts that I take. Just will not advise anyone else to.

    @Breado Thanks for the post. I went into your account and found my old account. I have been struggling because I thought my profile name was RealSlayer. LOL it is Slayer. You never knew but you helped me. Thanks again.
