Hi all, i'm Neil & am from Northumberland in the UK:) I've been in the hobby for 14 years now & have kept all sorts of fish over the years but spent half of that time keeping & breeding angle fish & bronze cory's. I sadly gave up fish keeping a few months ago but as I felt I needed a break away from the hobby even tho I still have to do the maintenance on my wife's community tank but a good friend of mine gave me a bare 2ft tank so I built a stand for it & got it up & running. The tank is still cycling at the minute but i'm going to make up some LED lighting for the tank & will be adding some hawthorn branches, java fern, anubias nana & hopefully some other plants. Never kept Apistogramma's before so will be reading up on them & will start with one of the easier ones as I don't have an RO unit

Welcome! I'm across the Pennines in Manchester.
Apisto cacatuoides is one that is more tolerant of hard water and very pretty too. Good luck :)

Thanks for the welcome, I was thinking of starting out with Apisto cacatuoides as I do like them a lot. Still got some waiting to do as the filter isn't matured yet but it give me the time to get the tank just how I want it well hopefully
