Hi All I love planted tanks and tiger barbs, I have recently started with my tank so I'm kinda of a newbie and I'm loving it. I have attached pictures of my tank. I'm from Bloemfontein currently looking for nice plants and maybe some drift wood. Don't be shy to suggest websites.
Welcome to APSA, you will learn a lot here. You can lookup betterweather for plants once Richard is back in the country. Ask all the questions you have, here are bound to be someone with an answer.
Welcome to APSA... I used to keep (Green) Tiger Barbs as well, here's a link to my old Tiger tank: http://www.apsa.co.za/xenforo/threads/190liter-low-tech-rescape.11302/ Piece of advise...get more tiger barbs or get rid of your angels. I had more than 20 TB's...and they where still up to no good...lol
Thanks for the advice, I got four more this past weekend I will see If I can't get more next month. That is a beautiful piece work in your tank, I love when I 'grow up' I wanna make a tank just like yours, love it.
Thanks for the warm welcome, I'm hoping to learn a lot. I had a look at betterweather the seems to be under construction, I guess I will have to wait.
The owner is just in Asia at the moment for holiday...so he closed his site down till he returns to SA (end of the month)
End of the month you say... I'm so excited, now I can't wait. I'm loving this place already, the welcoming is very pleasant thank you guys. Yeppie!! I found a home.
I googled "aquarium plants online south africa" there was a 'for sale' query string in one of my searches, ended up making it shorter and I got APSA somewer.
Welcome to APSA! Like said before, Betterweather is the way to go. There are a few other people from "The States" if I'm not mistaken, who will also be willing to help you out, I'm sure.
Welcome!! Maybe when it comes to forums, Google's filter just makes sure that the best forums show up first
