There is a volume control for a reason there Mick (-:

Just show Anne this one and she'll appreciate the restraint you showed in your purchases (-:

Take a video tour of the store (-:
(Complete with really naff voice over)

More to follow but it takes time to get them uploaded.

That was fun way to spend a a couple of days (-: no problems getting back and i'll upload a few more pictures once we have all the fish settled (-: Thanks to David for getting us all motivated for a meet!

With all the guitar vids posted i feel the need to put a shout out to Montana Skies. I found them through the cello side but thoroughly enjoy the guitar mix.

Odyssey, those are some fine looking Cheni you have there, great shot of them peeing at each other on the leaves.

I believe (hope) you meant peeking.....LOL!

Gah! that's one the spell check didn't catch...

funnily enough i have'nt seen any for a while in our fish shops were mostly getting Gastro's. It's the same story down south too, the shops round here have Beaufortia kweichowensis or assorted Gastros but no Cheni, mind you i have stopped going to the shop that we originally got our Cheni from as i...

Thank you for all the kind comments (-: They certainly are not the easiest fish to capture displaying, once that fin goes up it is usually a sign they are about to go charging off chasing each other (-: All the pictures are linked to full size copies if you click on them, taken hand held with my Nik...

Knowing the grief i would get at next weeks meet about pictures i thought i'd attempt to avoid it by posting some shots of my Pseudogastromyzon cheni . http://media.share.ovi.com/m1/large/0643/5974b4976b814ad980a53ff33ed0f75e.jpg They were telling me they were overcrowded in the tank tonight with a ...

My music taste tends to vary a lot so it's hard for me to pick a favourite video to share, although that said if i had to pick one it would have to be Shadowman by K's Choice which always manages to send a shiver down my spine no matter how many times i listen to it. I have been a long time fan of T...

Emma linked to my post on setting up my tank earlier in this thread. This is an old picture: http://lh6.google.co.uk/image/dienyddio/Rjxj09EC8fI/AAAAAAAAARQ/8AKoyGBxvfU/s800/tank_stitch2.jpg It is currently a mess of algae and valis which i must clean out before taking any more pictures. My excuse f...

Well here's the "underneath" concept. You could of course have the water transfer chamber along the back behind a false wall rather than underneath. I don't know that cleaning is such an issue. I've never cleaned out a River-Tank manifold....ever. All the internal surfaces provide areas for benefic...

That is a stunning tank you have there hx, I love those tunze pumps, so much flow for the wattage. Mine still warm the water more than I would like in my tank. Like you i don't rely on the big sponge barrier for filtration (i have an additional canister filter for that) which makes cleaning it very ...

Another loach meet? Excellent (-: Susan and I will be there.

Is anyone after any Pseudogastromyzon cheni? We have had a population explosion and need to move some on to good homes.
