Hey people

Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new to the hobby. Just set up my 2nd ever tank the other week. I was out in Cyprus visiting my parents last summer and set up a tank for my dad for his birthday with congo tetras, cherry barbs, angelicus pleco, schwartz and sterbai corydoras and amano shrimp. Absolutely loved the process and was very sad that it wasn't my own tank and I had to leave it, but I gave my mum an idiots guide to keeping it going after I left and it's still going strong! So my boyfriend who works for World of Water in England, got me a tank for Christmas for a peacock mantis shrimp as I've always wanted one, and I have to say, I am now obsessed with the hobby. I'm sure I will be on here a lot more as between my boyfriend and I, we will probably end up having about 4 fishtanks in our house haha, plus he wants to start up his own business as well.

Excited to see your mantis tank! They are so cute. I will have one someday when the time is right
