smidey Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 welcome, you have great taste in fish & you won't regret setting up an african tank as long as it's done well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beets82 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Good luck with your African tank, I just finished setting mine up. Heaps of help in here i just used the search function, it works quite well i usually did a general search and then you can search again within the results to narrow it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
