Just been, superb Asian fishes ,as well as the loaches there are , a good number of rarly seen Barb like fishes ,[Cyprinids] i.e. i picked up some Barbicthys Nitidus , Discheridontis Ashmeadi, and a new Garra sp/ from India , apparently a dwarf , very nice ! others included some Chagunius Baileyi, some huge Apollo Sharks ,not sure which one ? and for those cat lovers a few Asian beautys, i picked up a small group of Gagata Gashawyu, rarely seen these , wonderful colouration , not to disimilar to Botia Histrionica ! these also come from Burma , anyway dont take my word for it , pop along , and you will not , be dissapointed .

Somthing that should prove interesting ! rescently at Pier Aquatics , a huge Syncrossus , possibly a c/f Berdmorei , i think a pic could start a good debate ! the fish in question was about 8 or 9 inches long , and also very deep , this fish was fully spotted , unlike most Berdmorei , i guess it was more akin to S. Beauforti , in that it was fully spotted but thats were the similarity ends , this fish was a beaut indeed .
