wow, do they look skinny? Poor fish must have been stressed beyond all belief.

Did they have a piece of bogwood at the least?

SORRY!

i think i can across wrong. i had realised that its not Rocco and Blue giving that advice, they clearly know better. i think its bad that that seems to be the advice the dopey lot in the shops are giving out, even to people who knnow the fish need space and water flow. i realise that could have been really offensive, and i writ it wrong.

Would you guys mind if I did a little design modification to the clown loach poster and shared it here? I'm a graphic design student as well as a freelance multimedia consultant over here. We make this kind of stuff. :)

If you know who they belong to, I'd recommend asking first via PM. If you don't know, you should link to the pics and ask for an ok here. Just a considerate thing to do. 8)

sorry for my ignorance, but what language do people mainly speak in the Phillipines? i am alsways fascinated to see what the info looks like in other languages

There are many dialects but the prevalent one is called Tagalog, closely followed by Cebuano. Many people here also speak English, especially those whose families have foreign roots. I myself am part Spanish and Italian and would be a poor example of a Filipino. Its a lot like being a foreigner in one's own country.

I speak tagalog well enough to be understood and I can understand Cebuano and speak it a little... let me give you a little example.

English:
Where are the fish?

Tagalog:
Nasaan ang mga isda?

Cebuano:
Diin ang mga isda?

graphic work to follow. PMs will be sent as I look at some pics.
