Catfish & Angels

[Bloo]

Some of my "new-ish" fish

This lovely huge Angel I found (free!!) on Aquarist Classifieds. It's just ginormous and such a lovely peaceful fish

Then I bought this beautiful Angel Fish (also adult but smaller than the one above) - and it turned out to be a monster in disguise
I put up with horrendous behaviour for almost 3 weeks before it was banned and banished to the shop

So in return I got a few smaller Angel Fish and now they all live happily ever after !

I think this one is a pearlscale - ever so pretty

Another little one

And some of my new catfish
This is my L273 (Titanicus Pleco)

And this is my L091 (Three Beacon Pleco)

They are so clear. Fish look fantastic too.

realy nice pics bloo, any chance of a full tank pic ? or is a full tank shot not up to photo standards yet ?

 

[Bloo]

Thanks guys

Afraid I don't have any decent full tank shots yet nothing that's worth taking and posting anyway. I have a ginormous piece of bogwood, but it doesn't want to sink. So it's floating in top and not a pretty sight.
Pretty wood though ! and will be great once it sinks !

Here's a pic of the wood though. About 2ft in length

Lovely fish

Know what you mean about the bogwood. Mine's been soaking for 2 weeks, still floats Although to be fair it had been in someone's garden (dry) for three years

Those are gorgeous pics Bloo. I love your huge angel. He/she is so gorgeous. And those plecs are amazing. I want, I want, I want!!!! Got any more pics of the cories and whiptails??

Very nice fish. I spot a chain loach in a couple of those pictures, must be nice

 

[geo7x]

Fantastic pictures and beautiful fish! especially the pearlscale angel and titanicus pleco

 

[Bloo]

cane76 Thanks - these are my first Angel Fish ever and I love them. They are just so graceful.

LisaLQ so you know what I'm going through ! I really can't wait for it to sink ! And though I have some other smaller pieces that had no problem sinking, I bet my fish can't wait for this large piece either. It has a wealth and maze full of hiding holes.

AlexAndCarmen Thanks not in my new setup yet I'm afraid. Perhaps tomorrow I'll get my camera out again !

Barracuda518 Thanks - I actually have 9 of these little "drawf chain loaches" (Yasuhikotakia sidthimunki). They are just the cutest little clowns in the tank. Always playing and frolicking around and just too amusing to watch

geo7x Thanks !

Beautiful fish and fabulous photo's Bloo. What camera were you using?

 

[Bloo]

Thanks Cheffi
It's a Digital SLR Canon 20D with a macro lens. But I really have little (to no) clue how to use it so it's all just point and shoot really Though to be honest for every pic I post, I throw away about 10 !

Love that Titantic plec, had them on my wanted list for a while, never found a good size one though.

I recently had a floaty piece of bogwood aswell, that pretty much fills half of my 60x32" tank, so I drilled a rock and screwed it to the bototm of the bogwood, 2 months later I'ved now removed the rock and it sits nicely on the bottom.

EDIT- Opps left the l's out of drilled!

 

[Bloo]

Thanks Paul Good idea I think that's exactly what I will do.
Didn't think it would take this long, but it's been a few weeks already and it's still not really sinking - though 80% of it is probably below the water level.

My L273 isn't all that big - probaly only around 4-5" SL but it was so beautiful I couldn't let it go.

great looking plecs! I've been eyeing some up recently as well, but they're a bit hard on the wallet!
