over farming has put the price up unfortunately, that and they aren't quite in season yet.

 

Me and Paul went to World of Fishes in Felbridge, East Grinstead today and he bought me some new fishes!!!!
Let me introduce you to the newest member of our family:
I've called him Bruce Lee.





We got a Shrimp too and i called it Sebastian but the pic's of him didn't come out too good. Have to wait til it's dark so i don't need to use a flash!

 

Passion fish.com

look what i've started some awesome tanks there

we've just been back to the fish shop.....i'm sure kim will post

 

oppppsss.....she already has

 

I got a shrimp! A mountain shrimp. Which my sister in law imagitively named "Shrimpy"

 

lol- what you two like!!

 

GENIUS!!!

 

I can't help it fella......you should of seen me last week, bought a new bbq

 

I called my shrimp Sebastian after the lobster from The Little Mermaid.
We go a red fin shark too and i called him Sharky after Sharky and George. I used to love that cartoon.

 

my mrs goes out the room when i live feed my monsters

 

Completely Off Topic.

Paul.

Did I see your car last night around 5ish. You were going down towards the large roundabout under the A3. (Not saying exactly where)

Either that of youve got a double.

 

My tank.

 

Nice looking tank mate.What is that down the right hand side though?cant quite make it out

 

on the right hand side of the tank I've got a big piece of bogwood with java fern growing from it. have to keep changing plants cos the missus apple snails keep eating em

 

Looks really good.Where abouts did you get it?

 

Got it from my local aquarium place called maidenhead aquatics, most good aquatic shops with a good plant section should be able to offer you something similar. If you can't get one wher the java fern is growing on the wood already you can do it yourslef, buy some bogwood (will prob be with sand ornaments and rocks section somewhere) then get some java fern the twisted one is cool, then all you gotta do is make small cuts in the wood to tuck the fern roots into and then hold in place with some cotton as it will rot away in time.

 

we will be asking for our section soon

 

Just been staring at the fish for half an hour. They're so pretty!

 

nope wasn't me fella.....don't tell me there is another "enterprise" class Sapphire out there?

 

been trying to get a pic of the shrimp.....but the bugger keeps hiding under the rock each time i get the camera out. Think you can see him in one of the photos. It's the looking thing you'll ever see in a tank......go buy one now

 

I had an armoured shrimp but all he did was hide so I got fed up with him and took him back lol

 

your mad......they look crazy

granted he just sits under the rock but he pops his head out and opens up his (claws?) then he looks like one of those sentinals out of the matrix with there radar open....crazy thing

 

thats the prob mine hid right at the back of the tank and I never got to see him. Also they are a pain if you have to add medicine to the tank as they can't take it and end up ill or dying, bloody pain lol
Have to admit they look cool, mine had filter feeding things instead of clawas and just sorta waved em about a lot.

 

thats the one.....very "Matrix"

 

they just get eaten in my tanks

 

i'm not surprised.....it's not fair to feed them to your piranas

 

have to agree with whoever said it, marines are a LOT easier to keep nowadays, not as easy as trops but not much harder, ive had mine running since april, havent had any probs whatsoever and i dont do much in the way of maintenance either, a 10% water changes every few months, due to the amount of live rock and circulation i have

i also used to keep discus years ago, did like my cichlids
