Hi guys,

Long time no see. Hoping you all are well.
There are several reasons I've haven't been here for a long time.

Had some inlog-issues but main cause is I am in a divorce and living in a different place since january. Maintenance on my tanks was a problem (every other week) and I lost a lot of Corys cause of that grrrrrr.

Now setting up 4 of those tanks in my new appartment. Only a few Corys moved house last week. Hoping some will do next week or so.

I'll keep you informed and like to join in again with the guys of which I "know" some since 20 2013.

Have been in contact with Paul ever since, which I think is really great.

Greetings,
Aad

Yay....you won’t remember me from previously but I definitely know of your reputation/notoriety/expertise! It was literally yesterday you were mentioned with regard to rack systems, so it’s clearly fate.
Sorry you’ve had to start over (I’m 2 years into my fresh start) but onwards and upwards is a good motto I try to stick with. Can’t wait to see pictures of your cories (definitely my favourite characters)
