You must have a good camera, i am struggling to get decent shots in broad daylight grrrrrrrr.
Any advice? I have already read the other forums btw.

Love the blood discus pic, oh and pics of your new additions please :)
 
Jake Wiley? Thats not Jake who had Wycombe Discus before he moved up north mid last year!?

I wonder, i think it is, if so, Jake is fantastic! He is very knowledgeable and he bought some of my discus and i bought discus from him too! He was very honest, i appreciate that.

Simonas,

How was the show?
I would have loved to have gone, but have just gotten back from a week away.
 
it was ok mate, not as big as I expected infact I'm not sure what I expected but I was underwhelmed

Saying that it was fine for £3 and there were some decent fish on display. I think I just expected more

are you local to Haydock?

No, not local - a long drive.
Was thinking of driving up and meeting some people I know who also went.
In the end, went away for the weekend. So didn't go.
Probably not a bad thing for my wallet.......
