ANGELS = DISCUS = RAMS

Hi all
I am a very serious hobbyist breeder and have been breeding for some 21 years for most of the early years i kept and bred discus and moved on to angels then back to discus and now breeding electric blue rams with my angels. in that time i have always tried to keep good strong healthy stock in my fish house which over the years has now grown to a 40 tank set up with about 2,000 gallons in tanks from 6ft down to 2ft. I have all the standard strains EG, GOLD MARBLE, BLACK MARBLE, TITAINIUM BLUE, PLATINUM BLUES, KIO, AND NOW NEW IN IS THE RED EYED ALBINO. and any one is more than welcome to come and have a look at the fish house and talk fish just pm me to arrange a time, hopefuly in all them years i can tell a good fish from a bad one.
cheers tony

Hi tony, welcome to the forum,
Where are you based?

Hi Tony, good to see you here

Hi Pterophyllum
I am based in kinmel bay 1 mile from rhyl, 9 miles from ghipsi.
i,ve got to be honest i am not one for talking with the pc would always prefer talking in the fish house.
but i must say lisa (ghipsi) seems to have got a good gang of fish keepers together on this site.
will try to get some pics of my angels on here for you to look at, shame we are so far apart or we could have done some swaps.
very nice to here from you though.
cheers tony

And Tony has got an amazing fish house! With some fantastic stock

I hadn't appreciated how close you guys are to Towyn,
It's a few years since I visited the Talyllyn Railway, now I have two more excuses to get over that way!

now I have two more excuses to get over that way!

shall I get the kettle on now? or is it something stronger for you? Lisa

shall I get the kettle on now?

Don't put it on yet, but maybe in the summer hols.

but this is were the pc comes in very useful.

Hi Tony the water is quite hard & can be a nightmare,i have a water softner & HMA filter that has more than paid for its self.

Hello and welcome Tony. Another Taff here, but from the south. You've obviously got loads of experience, so you'll be an asset to the forum. I can't wait to see pics of all your beautiful fish.

Sorry not been on last few days been yet again adding fish tanks in the fish house, well moved one 6ft x 21" d x 25"h so i could fit a new 6ft x 18"d x 15"h just about got room for two 18"x 18"x 18" cubes.
as soon as the work in the fish house is up and running will see if my mate joe can get video or lots of pics to show (were i live according to the wife).
just going to catch my first batch of electric blue rams so mum @ dad can lay again think there is about 2 to 3 hundred there.
cheers tony .

Nice one regarding the Rams

Thank,s lisa
spent nearly two hours catchin just short of 300 babys. fast little gitt,s.
think i will catch them when they are not as old next time.
cheers tony

Hi Tony,
you say in your 1st post that your breeding Electric Blue Rams and Angels?
What does the fry look like?!
I see Towyn was mentioned, does that mean you're anywhere near Abergele?
I have family there, cheers,
Mark.

Hi Mark
The baby rams are just like mum & dad still a bit to small to sell yet should be ready in
about the beginning of May they are only about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch long.
and i am in Kinmel bay about 4 miles from abergele.
you are more than welcome to come and look at my fish house.
cheers tony

Hello again Tony,
sorry my attempt at humour went wrong, when i read your 1st post, for a split second it read that you were breeding your Rams with your Angels, that's why i asked what the fry looked like, i'll keep quiet from now on!
Next time i'm in Wales, i'll give you a shout if you have anything for sale!
