Finding it very difficult to come on now, without budgies I am restricted to lounge only, been out voted having them in the house, so have bought a Tropical fish tank, (Aquamode 600) so I don't get bored, much easier than the aviary by far but still a lot to learn about cycling the tank etc; hope all you guy's are well, will pop in now and then if that's ok??

I agree with Marianne,we would miss not having you around plus you hold so much budgie knowledge which will be a great help to lots of people I have a tropical tank Brian,may take a while before the water is exactly right to put fish in but once you are up and running its all pretty simple...I am setting up a tank for my mum at the mo ,i used biological supplement for mine and am doing so with my mums ,it helps speed up the good bacteria in your tank (you prob know this already but thought i would mention it in case you didnt)...Any way...Although this time you have been out voted to keep home budgie,you never know what the future holds

Brian, Don't feel you can't chat with us, help people and use your budgie knowledge! Marianne I totally agree. With your knowledge and experience, you shouldn't restrict yourself to lounge only. Great to see you though

Thanks all,your so kind, moogie, Wharf aquatics gave me some friendly bacteria (filter medium) to get me going and my readings are good at the moment, the only thing the fish don't do is, jump on my head and poop down my neck, .......... Lol

Brian, Brian, Brian!!!! If I were a bit closer I think I'd have to pay you a visit and knock some sense into you! *Head-slap* You have heaps of budgie info to share, especially for the beginner breeder, aviary set-up etc. I am very disappointed for you that a house-budgie or two has been given the big thumbs-down. And while fish are nice, they aren't going to hop onto your head, poop down the back of your shirt or hide out in your hoodie. Fish can't chitter-chatter away with you either. The tank looks great, by the way ..........
