Hi everyone, Mel and Tony here, We have 2 fishtanks currently, 1 four foot and the other 2x2. We have oscars in the big tank as well as a sail fin pleco,pictus,2 silver sharks and a couple of cory's. Our oscars are only young and we are getting a 4x2x2 except now tony has the idea of it being a 6x2x2 so we are still deciding....
In our 2x2 we have some young electric yellows, a black lancer catfish,an eel tail catfish, A red tail shark,young clown loaches, a pair of young{cant recall the name} chiclids,another young {yes, once again cant recall the name} catfish and a couple of rainbows that are native to australia. Cant wait for that new tank so we can split it up a bit!!!!!!! Laughing

Well we went the 6 foot x 2 x 18inches. We havent quite got it set up yet as it will take the place of the 4 foot and this requires alot of modifying as its sort of built into the middle of our louge room, well kinda anyways, when its done i will post some pics so that will explain it better than i can.
We have also some new fish. My favourite is the dekeyseria or butterfly pleco...{which the fish shop told me was a clown pleco...} a cuckoo catfish, some electric blues, another red oscar, pakastani loach, and a borneo sucker. 1 more too and i will get the name of that,when i find the paper i wrote it on! Thanks everyone for being so welcoming!!!
post some pics as soon as its done! Laughing

I was just pointing out that i wouldn't be posting anything other than fish pic's , after all there are other sites for that!!! lol Laughing
Can some one please tell me how to upload a photo on here...please.
And now finally its all set up and the only thing missing is the cupboard underneath which tony is doing now so by tonight my house will be nice and tidy again and our beautiful fishtank will take pride of place!!!
We also brought a couple more chiclids today but the petshop was unable to give us the names so i will try to get some pics of them so maybe...hopefully one of you may be able to identify them! Very Happy

Mel & Tony: Your image didn't display for me. On the assumption that no-one else can see it either (I also have not been successful in posting an image from my MSN account)...

Here's the site that was recommended to me. I think it's top's for this sort of thing. Once you have images uploaded, go to "my images", it will give you the exact coding you need to post the image in a Forum. you just cut and paste!

If you have any problems, please PM me or e-mail.

PS: Probably best to post your pics under a more appropriate section. That way no one will miss out on your efforts if say, they prefer to look at 'Aquarium Chat' for Tank detail, rather than 'greetings' in the 'Lounge'.
