now three weeks ago my son made me a 12 foot stand to take two 6 foot tanks, it was to be one 6 foot but he got carried away , plus all my tanks have been plumbed in for quicker draining of tanks .

Looks like your going to be very busy Margaret. Your fish room is really coming along and congratulations on the red cover fry. 3 Years is a long wait but certainly worth it in the end.

That is so great. You are lucky your other half doesn't give you grief over having the fish room in such a nice part of the house. My racks are in the garage, though I have displays in the house.

It all looks wonderful, Margaret.

Good luck with theose Red Covers.

I don't think I've seen Red Covers before. Do you have a pic of the adults, when they're not in breeding colours?

thank you for your comments hollowman.pleased that you liked my fish room.yes it was a long wait with the red covers,but it was well worth it.so far there has only been two lost but it is early days and fry are very unprodictable i do a small water change every two hours after their feed. seems to keep them healthy and strong.
cheers margaret.
