Looking at the pics could be right, bit small at the moment, dont mind two males they are in a 6ft tank so should have enough space to keep apart.

Tank has been running well so far, a pair has formed from the 3 Bolivians have 2 males 1 female, Apisto's are just displaying towards each other occasionally. Angels are really quiet, they tend to mainly hang around the wood or plants not had any bother with them so far. Plants are doing ok, slow growing apart from the Giant Val, added a 3" square handfull of Salvinia nantans about 3 weeks ago now I have a 12"square ish patch which looks great.

Heres a little video update.

It really is thanks Stephen, so much calmer then when the Geos where the main fish, just what I need at the moment, Dr's orders are to sit and relax, had another bad migraine last Friday which has left me with Vertigo, since then my left side's a bit off, I can walk but everything is spinning to the left, like being drunk without drinking, so off the road at the moment too for safety, walking the dog 2km still but I look silly as if I'm drunk.

My apologies Steve as I did not read your posts in the "How are you?" thread.

I had a mini-stroke (TIA) back in December 2017, almost 3 years ago.
It affected my left side (legs, arms, face), it was weird and I often felt like crying, I didn't get the migraine headaches as you have.
I had a brain scan which came back all clear, Gill (the wife) said did they find one (brain).
My GP put me on Clopidogrel which I can only assume is working.
I just carried on as normal, didn't really rest much although I probably took things easy for a short while.
That, on top of my disability, was very scary as it occurred just 3 months short of my 59th birthday, my late father died a week after his 61st birthday.
I reached the 61st birthday milestone back in March this year, again a scary time (thinking of my late father).

I personally wish you a speedy recovery, get well soon.

All the best

Your migraines and dizziness sounds awfully like zarra.

She suffers with menierres disease. Might be worth looking into just in case.
