1sloopy57 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hi all, Just a brief hello. Many years ago I was into breeding fish with friends (variety of tropicals, but mainly discus). Had a brief dalliance with marine tropicals (successfully). Life circumstances meant fish had to go, and I spent 20 years without tanks, water changes, panic in power failures (although we did have a couple of axolotls over the years with the kids). Thought I was cured. Then, a couple of months ago, I quit smoking. This proved to be dangerous. On a trip to buy supplies for cat and dog I saw a particularly good-looking betta............ .......... and of course I deserved a reward for 3 weeks without nicotine, didn't I? Currently we have 2 male bettas in small triangular tanks (to be replaced by a barracks tank soon), one 20L tank with 3 coldwater fish and a 54L community tropical tank. Son (18) seems to be infected as well - after dinner discussion tonight was trying to work out where we could fit more tanks in.......... cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettarazzi Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 LOL. There's no cure! Once infected it never leaves you. You can suppress it. Pretend it's not there. But it's ALWAYS there. Welcome to the forum. We're here to enable your addiction. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
