That's quite cool. I'm looking forward to seeing how his moss wall develops.

hi
one is monticola. spots are relatively big but it fits with the region and the appereance all in all. the second - striped one is still in question. cornusaccus fits with the region but not in appereance unless the caught fish are joungsters.
cheers charles
