Funny thing happened on the way to lunch today, I took the time out to see Turkis and his fish, what follows are a few of the fine looking fish I saw today.

I should add that these fish were totally co-operative with my limited camera skills, and were complete hams, hogging the camera.

To be honest, no, it was nice central system though.

It had 3 clear cylinders, 2 with biomedia, looked like cermaic rings, and 1 pressurized with similar media. (2 aerobic chambers, 1 anaerobic chamber, likely does the same work as a fluidized bed)

I think it's best If I let Turkis describe his system, I had time pressure, I didn't want to loose too much time.

Hehe,

Turkis was member second simply member that I visited this week, I also visited Joao on Monday night, I'm still trying to fix them photo's.

Honestly I could not believe how well Turkis' fish behaved and took to the picture taking, including the flash.

Hi Trucdan,
I do have a centralized system, clear plexiglass columns filled with Siporax media, 2 aerobic gravity drip and 1 anaerobic that is pressurized and a certain flow is maintained at all times/ per minute.
It is hard to explain and I'll try to post some pictures later on and I will send you a self explanatory PM.

Turkis, nice looking set up.

I'd be interested in hearing more about your setup as well.

Looks like those Eruptions, Mandarin Passions and Red Melons are being well taken care of.

Any pairs forming yet?

Keep up the good work.

Caro Joao,
Obrigado por tudo.

Hi Brew1,
I will try and send a PM regarding the set up.
The discus that I do have they are still too young, maybe by this summer or fall I may have some luck on them. ;D ;D ;D ;D
Thanks
