Retirement and forum shutdown (17 Jan 2022)

Hi,

John Howell who has managed the forum for years is getting on and wishes to retire from the role of managing it.
Over the years, he has managed the forum through good days and bad days and he has always been fair.
He has managed to bring his passion for fish keeping to the forum and keep it going for so long.

I wish to thank John for his hard work in keeping the forum going.

With John wishing to "retire" from the role of managing the forum and the forum receiving very little traffic, I think we must agree that forum has come to a natural conclusion and it's time to put it to rest.

I am proposing that the forum be made read-only from March 2022 onwards and that no new users or content be created. The website is still registered for several more years, so the content will still be accessible but no new topics or replies will be allowed.

If there is interest from the ITFS or other fish keeping clubs, we may redirect traffic to them or to a Facebook group but will not actively manage it.

I'd like to thank everyone over the years who helped with forum, posted a reply, started a new topic, ask a question and helped a newbie in fish keeping. And thank you to the sponsors who helped us along the away. Hopefully it made the hobby stronger.

I'd especially like to thank John Howell and Valerie Rousseau for all of their contributions, without them the forum would have never been has successful.

Thank you
Darragh Sherwin

Thanks!

I'm trying to find the ways to not get rid of it and see how I can improve it
As I have few ideas on my mind for next project, but unfortunately I have
no space and money to keep 2nd tank

This is very unusual for me to have one layout for 10 months, lol

so.. I can can say this project is now closed for sure


it was a last minute call for me to enter this tank by the end of June
for IIAC international contest. www.iiac.com.tw/en/index.php
to be fair with not much of expectations (as this was no close to competition tank
- too messy in terms of planting etc). Today I got a letter. So it is ranked with 547th
place out of 820.. so is not too bad for first ever entry in such a contest, but also it
means I need a lot of to improve.


So I hope I will succeed better with my Mordor theme..





Thank you all who followed this journey from the very beginning
