It is so appreciated. Did you pick anything up?

No problem, I did not pick/up any. I want some cheni's or something along that line. I am already adopting two 3-4 inch yoyo's from a mod at bcaquaria.com on friday. That brings my yoyo's up to a massive pack of 9.
That's it no more botias for me.
I really want to build on my R/T now. Next is the java fern wall. I will be also trying one of those diy foam and concrete backgrounds for my 15 tall.
If you see any nice hillstreams around could you lmk/
thanx

Hey Erik. I picked up two of each - S. pulchra, shown here and S. robusta to join my loner in the river tank. They're still in quarantine, but should move soon.

Nice pic Mark. Love these fish. Although sightings tend to be fleeting rushes between cover, I just get a thrill every time. They're so beautifully shaped and I love that brassy look they have at times. One of mine has always been a lot darker than the other two.
