Martin has kept fish for 11 years now, starting with a three foot tank and culminating in nearly 450 gallons in four tanks spread throughout the house.
The current list consists …

5Ft 80 gallon tank containing fish from Lake Tanganyika, Frontosa, Tropheus, Synodontis etc.

4ft 100 gallon Acrylic double bow containing a pair of Leopoldi freshwater Stingrays. I’ve had these rays since they were about 4” in diameter, they are now over 12” and soon to breed with any luck ! These guys will be moving into a new, larger home this year.

5ft 130 gallon containing a Pacu called Paxo who I’ve owned for 11 years, a Distochodus Sexfiatus and various orphans from previous tanks

4ft 120 gallon full reef Marine setup complete with live rock, corals, Anenomes, crabs snails, Clowns, Chromis, Starfish etc etc

Martin has a few ambitions within this hobby including to breed his Leopoldi rays and keep an Octopus ….. research is underway on both !

In addition to keeping fish of all shapes and sizes he currently has nine snakes ranging from 1ft to 10ft and three cats to keep him busy !
