you need to teach me your mind tricks
that is one lovely striata and one quite amazing one. can i see more pictures of it when it has settled in?
are you going to have much room left in your tanks for fish shopping at Emma's when you head down?

Thank you Helen, I will get more photos as soon as it settles in and lets me. I dad take quite a few pics in the small photographing tank but it was starting to get a bit stressed and the colours were fading, they both seem to have settled well and have already had a good feast on bloodworm

.
The fish That I am getting from Emma's in December are for a couple of specific tanks which are fairly empty at the moment (unless anything else catches my eye), I have just set up a new 75 Gallon, new 44 Gallon and hopefully a 39 gallon will be set up before I come through to Emma's or soon after

OMG! It's the prodigy of a few beers and a fish and chip supper between a
striata and a
rostrata! Amazing looking fish Mark.
When can we go shopping? I want to learn the ways of the Dark Wallet (full of moths) Side
What I really find amazing is that they're really beautifully healthy fish at such an insane price.

Now the Striata has settled in a bit the markings look great, the Sid's have been in the shop for a couple of weeks now so I was expecting there to be a few skinny ones but there wasn't one in the tank. I wasn't expecting chunky fish but I was surprised with the quality of them.

It amazes me as well Jim

, I think quite a few of my recent purchases have been either lucky finds or just been in the right place at the right time

Got any new pictures of that B. striata? Thats quite a collection of Sids you have there. Dont you have like 20 now? I bet that will look really cool once you get them out of quaratine and in with the others.

I will hopefully get a couple more pics of the B. Striata over the weekend, yes my Sidthimunki shoal now numbers 20, they will all go together after a couple of precautionary Levimasole treatments
