Introducing Myself

Post by ruud65 »

Hello everyone,

My name is Ruud komen and I am from Amsterdam.
I have been keeping fish for quite some time now but never got to catfish.
Well some Corydoras but nothing seriously biotope right if you know what I mean.
Since One and a half year I am planning and building a new tank (about 800L) which is going to be a blackwater biotope.It will be a Rio Urubaxi tank wich means a lot of bogwood and few plants and the main inhabitants will be Geophagus Winemilleri.
Furthermore there will be Hyphessobrycon Phyrronothus in it and some catfish. Probably Peckoltia Braueri but I am always open to suggestions.
I have been reading on this forum for a little while now and I'm overwelmed by the knowledge that is going round.I know for sure that I am going to learn a lot about catfish here.

Greetings,
ruud komen

I will probably be a lurker for some time because I have no knowledge to share yet.(don't hold it against me)

Welcome, friend. I am sure you are just being modest. You will see where you can help out with your experience and knowledge. Your post speaks for itself: you are a serious, intelligent hobbyist and a great addition to this forum.
