Paul Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I was out of the hobby for quite a while if you don’t include the 1000 gallon Koi pond I dug in the backyard of my old home. I keep Discus in a 120 community tank and I also have Kribs, Rams and Apistogramma nijsseni and cacatuoides in smaller tanks. I live in an area with1 LFS (and they do mostly marine) and a couple of chain stores so not much available outside of the run of the mill so I’ve been getting my fix on Aquabid and other online sources. I’m looking forward to some good discussions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I live in Pittsboro, NC and am currently working Discus and A. nijsseni. You have excellent taste in fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwise Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Sweet tank, Paul! It looks like you can enjoy it from all sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s built into the wall between my office and the kitchen/great room. Edited August 1, 2020 by Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillMcK Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Hey Paul and Daniel, I live in Wilmington and am hoping to set up my first ponds/tubs this summer. Thinking of a couple in the 40-50 gallon range. I’d like to dedicate one to some apistogrammas but can find anywhere local or online to get some. Any ideas where I might find some in our area? Or maybe online? Thanks, Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a 'Fish Room' LFS in Wilmington, NC. I shop at the one in Raleigh, and if the one in Wilmington is anything like the Raleigh store, then it will be first class. Check it out and let us know. I bought some Apistogramma nijsseni from Aquabid this summer and I am very happy with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillMcK Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Unfortunately the Fish Room in Wilmington is not really that impressive. I still support them when I can but it seems like covid has hit them pretty hard in terms of orders, as I’d imagine is common everywhere. The owner is really nice but I get the feeling it’s not quite what it used to be in its prime. I’ll check out the Raleigh location and see if they can get some apistos and if not I’ll try my luck with Aquabid. I’ve ordered from Aquahuna a couple of times and have been very pleased but I don’t think they carry them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
