Vanmanenia Interactions

Post by Martin Thoene » Wed Apr 25, 2007 12:08 pm

You guys are in trouble now I learned how to download/upload video :twisted:

Here's my Vanmanenia hainanensis interacting with one another. You'll note that there's a kind of choreographed interaction of moves, but they can't resist at having a peck at one another either. Various other hillstream species come in and out of shot too.

Very cool! 8)
One of the most enjoyable thing about keeping hillstreams is watching this type of interaction. I love the "guest stars" too.
Boy those vanmanenia have really filled out nicely.

Great video and way cool 'rod Martin. I'm into the VW beetle scene as well as fish and a few mates have got some silly souped up bugs. I've had a couple of scary runs as a passenger down the drag strip at Santa Pod :lol:

Heh heh! Been there, done that too! Here's my panel van "Bad News" that won best paint in the custom category at VW Action a long while back.

That's the first set of Revolution split-rims that they ever made for a bug. Had to make up special tooling.

(Token Loach Mention) LOACH! :wink:
