[alessasavoca]

thanks all you guys tropical fish world we have been too- when we went all the tanks were quite dirty - sorta put us off but is it usually like that?

Do you think that tony would show a new customer secret collection?

is barrack road in christchurch?

 

[helterskelter]

He's got none there ATM but I remember the days when he breed all his Betta's, and i lent him my cambodians and he produced over 1000 fry from them in a month!!!!!!!

Stunning fish..

Oh what about when tony flooded the country with Hoplo cat fish!!!!!! no one wanted any as there was 1000's comeing out of his ears!!!!!

Atlantis is the best by far

i went in there about 1 month ago and hes got the 2 kio tanks at the back by the windows, asked him what he had in there and he was breeding guppies in there, looked just like a pond and really cool, he took some out as well t show me, nice purples they were.

went to animal kingdom as well today.....YUK gross tanks not to good selection but there birds are great and had a puppy i was so tempted to take home, though i'd pulled when i went out the back it was their african grey wolf whistling at me and screaming HELLO and OI!!!!

 

[alessasavoca]

Yep animal kingdom looked a bit mank when we went in, so much alage you couldnt see the fish! I loved tony's shop it's like an Aladdin's cave in there. Didn't ask to see his secret supply of bettas but I will do next time, want to have a go at breeding them you see. Must admit when me and Wes went to Animal Kindgom we would have happily taken home about 6 kittens !

i got one of him/her about 5 months ago, came as a 2" long cute thing and turned into a 5" cute thing, the most gentle giant ive ever come across, greedy sod, had to start using a feeding cone to give the other fish a chance at getting something to eat, if i put in algea tabs in he grabs one and lies on it to stop the cories getting to it then picks it up and carries it around slowly eating it. very distructive in the evening and at night, i wake up to complete mess of a tank with plants floating everywhere, 2" gravel holes where he/she been digging and had to move my floating riccia i grow b/c it eats it during the night but never touches it if its tied to anything, will come to the hand and take food as well, surprisingly it will balance and rest on the thinnest of leaves and not even break them, really baffles me. worth getting one or a couple, at last thanks for the link nelly i'll be able to sex it .
anyway heres an old photo of him/her

Shot with KODAK Z650 ZOOM DIGITAL CAMERA at 2007-07-04, not at all shot today, taken from my pic collection today, get it right imageshack!!!!!

 

[alessasavoca]

thanks you guys they are pretty things one of my BNs is like that- she lays on the algae tablet to stop anyone else eating it! The Hoplos are pretty fish I do like the cat fish, we have a catfish that was sold to us as an upside down cat and I swear he has never swam upside down in the 6 months that we have had him, he's gorgeous anyway!
