G'day

Just thought I would whack this up. I am doing the PCS April talk on keeping tankbusters. I haven't really finalised everything exactly, I'm sure it will be a work in progress up until the very last minute wink.gif . But i'll try to put special emphasis on keeping TB's in Oz.

Including; tank size, filtration, feeding, availability, possibly a small section on breeding senegal bichirs and a few other interesting tid bits. I have also had the fortune of visiting some really spectacular aquariums overseas in the last couple years. I have withheld these photos to use at the meeting, some real sights to behold if your into TB's.

I will do my best to make this as interactive and as informative as possible. So hopefully I can pass on a bit of info/experience I've gained over the years and learn something myself in the process. Making it a little more interactive also means I have to talk for less myself wink.gif

Look forward to seeing some of you there.

Cheers,

Alex

Thanks Alex for doing such a good presentation. Lots of great information and fantastic photos.
Some important things to consider for anyone who is thinking about keeping a "big" fish.
