Yes. The judges will want one, and people like to walk around and look with them before an auction.
Speaking of which,our clubs big show is only two weeks away
You know what you guys need to think about, a couple of you should go for your judges certification. I believe you have to pass the course and apprentice three shows before you can become a certified judge. But after you are certified you will always have a judge in the area when you want to have a show. For your first few you will probably have to get a judge to fly in. But that would count as 1 apprentice experience as well. Then you'd have to come over and apprentice at two shows here or something. I know Diane Yang from Singapore had to do that to become a judge.

lvly~ nighters, take a pic tomorrow if possible. This fish has changed so much in the day and a half that I've known of him, I just gotta see him

imbellis are typically smaller and a bit thinner, their fins are short and thogh they look like plakats a little bit, they tend to be a little more active, unlike their sluggish splendin cousins.

questions are what we are here for, no one will judge you by what u do or dont know. people come here for a while and within a few months they end up being some of the best fish keepers here. i myself have been on this forum for almost a year, at the time i had one 10g tank, now i have four 10g, two 20g, and oodles of fish i love answering questions for people (esspecially the simple ones), im no expert myself so i take pride in helping a fellow fish keeper out.

thanx for that guppydude.
dont know if i shall go that mad, may want to but don't think hubby will let me,lol
already have two tanks so that makes four in our house already, as hubby has one and so does my youngest.
saying that i shall be getting myself a further 2 tanks one for females and one for any fry i may have in the future, but theses will only be 3-5 gl tanks, but the fry one will be bigger as big as poss really so i can divide it up etc for the male fry should i get any.
