Why thankyou esteemed one. I'll be up late reading this one. :lol:
So many species of fish yet so little time, space and money to keep them all...

Wow this is a great read :D

I would absolutely love to get hold of a group of the Clupeoides boreensis, they are one fish that I have liked the look of for some time now :P

These stress very, very easily and will start dying once you take them out of the water. I couldn't even keep one alive long enough to plonk it in a photo tank for some pics.
