Thank you all very much!

Hels - I'll PM you with a price. Make sure you're sitting down though!

Emma,

I know I have asked you before, but what kind of camera/lens are you using? You have some incredible picture taking skills.

Thanks Jason.

I'm using a Nikon Coolpix 8700 and take my macro fish pics in manual exposure mode. I get better results when using the photo tank as I can put brighter lights above it. The in-built Nikon flash is a bit pathetic and I still haven't really got the hang of using my external flash yet! When I got this camera (second hand but in v.v. good condition) the guy gave me a load of converter lenses which fit this model, but I honestly don't know where to start with those.

They are stunning fish Emma and excellent photos

I really do wish I could afford a decent shoal of these, they would look stunning in the new 7' along with the Clowns tank when it comes but they are a fair way out of my price range

Emma,

How much are they

Thanks MD.

Chen - I'm sorry, but I'm not willing to discuss our exact prices here. I will let serious UK buyers know via PM, but I don't feel comfortable talking about this sort of thing openly on the forums. Many factors dictate the price of fish available in shops and I don't want to start a debate here.

Sorry.

Emma

Yes, discussing fish prices is generally frowned upon by most serious forums. It's one reason for having PM's or E-mail.

Martin.

We added 6 Emperor Botia to the clown tank this evening!

They are so excitable, as are the clowns.

All loaches are playing, shoaling, and dancing together, and even the Emperors are shadowing each other already!

I'm sure that was a beautiful sight!

Great pictures you shared of some pretty impressive fish!
Thanks
