Other than Rovers what is your other passion or hobby

I like eating far too much and running away from ghosts.

And shagging Daphne`s leg?

Other hobbies of mine include, a senegal parrot,a bearded dragon(yes i know a snake with legs, building small cnc devices, dabbling with electronics, programming microcontrollers for electronics stuff, fishing ,reading(although i cant concentrate long enough to read at present) , repairing cars and motorbikes, still trying to grasp C after 30 odd years of trying ,fruit chines, got given one that would not work as the on board battery had eaten through the circuit board spent weeks repairing that one.
would list the gas but thats a way of life

My fruit trees and vegetable patch keep me busy. If it's raining and I have to stay in then I still make the odd airfix model - mainly aeroplanes.

That's a bummer hope the doc gives you the go ahead to dive it's something I've always wanted to do.
I returned to keeping fish couldn't believe how much technology has moved on since I last kept fish.
This time I'm doing it on a slightly smaller scale my last tank was 1100 litres or 240 gallons 8 foot long 2 foot wide and 30 inches deep very big tank took 4 people to move it the stand wasn't much lighter either filtration was 2 pond pumps.
All this just to house one fish my prized  2ft Amazon Red Tailed Catfish couldn't put anything else in with him as he would eat them tame as anything even the tank that size was still to small for him 

Yep, 1100 litres is some serious heavy stuff! My 650 litre tanks weighs about one ton in total !

I had to have a brick base built lucky enough the living room was a concrete based floor all sorts of problems if it had been floorboards.

I still remember the fun we had getting the tank into the living room had to remove the large bottom glass unit just to get it in 

I had a 6' x 2' x 2' tank split into 2 sections in the base acting as a sump and the bottom of the tank was drilled either end in the corners with 2 weirs.
I had the brick base built as I didn't trust the metal stand even though it was heavy grade steel I just had visions of the welds giving way and the whole house being flooded.

Pond pumps were the only thing power enough to provide the LPH turnover required for the filtration and if I remember rightly think each of pumps were pumping around 3000 lph so yes some serious filtration also the good thing with having sumps in the base all the heating could be located in the sump as well.
Weekly water changes were great fun 25% of 240 gallons hmmmm

That's some serious filtration 8000 lph wow !! I'm not well up on salt water tanks 

My current freshwater tank has a combined turnover of 3000 lph which I thought was high for a 4ft tank (internal bio filter 1000 lph and external filter 2000 lph which also has pre-filter unit fitted).
Water wise I'm looking into having a HMA filter fitted instead of going down RO route.
And I'm also upgrading my lighting from T5 to the Interpet Trispec Led system this week which can be programed for sunset and sunrise and night setting.

It looks really neat and is a direct replacement for my tank (I have Juwel Rio) but it's not cheap £180 per unit (I have 2 units) but the long term benefits of not having to change T5 tubes every six months will soon outway the  initial cost of this

Getting back to the Red Tailed Cat back when I kept one you could expect to pay £400 upwards for one but now you can get them on Ebay for as little as £40 which is shocking really considering the care they need.
