es355lucille Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Hi everyone. My name is Brad and I am new to this forum. I have kept saltwater fish for quite a few years. Right now I am starting a tank (hopefully quite soon) and hoping to house Lake Malawi peacocks and Haps. At this time I am still working on my tank in preparation to it holding some water. I am new to fresh water fish, but love all of the Cichlid varieties from all the rift lakes in Africa. I am hoping to find a few people close by loving the same hobby. I really enjoy meeting people within the hobby......my wife and I still make trips through Calgary on Saturdays visiting all the LFS's. Thanks Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 welcome to the forum Brad! there certainly are a lot of rift lake fans here! Post some pics when you`ve got it all set up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burbot Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Come check out the Calgary Aquarium Society if you have time on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. A few cichlid lovers there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
es355lucille Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Thanks Wingin' it, I will post some pictures when I get things running. I have just designed and am getting the sump built......so I should only be a couple of weeks before I am ready. If the weather would ever cooperate I would like to be out in the mountains looking for some rock for my display. Burbot, I was on the CAS website, if I am around I will definitely check it out. Thanks! Edited March 31, 2014 by es355lucille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frogfish Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Welcome to the forum. Keep an eye out for the cas auctions, seems to be a lot of cichlids there. If you want plants for your fish to destroy and uproot let me know I'm in NW calgary and often have trimmings to hand out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a button and looks easy....apparently not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
