3 bandit corys

Why did you only buy 3? They are shoaling fish and should be in groups of 6 or more with the same species Or do you already have more corys?

Don't worry I already have 7 I went to buy more masked corys but they only had 2 enormous ones so got the 3 bandits instead. I have a mixed group of corys but they all shoal together happily, there even seems to be a couple of mixed race relationships forming!

I went to the Green Machine in Wrexham, hoping to find the bristle nose plecs that the owner promised to order in for me, but they were closed Mighty disappointed. Will have to wait until half term or Easter now D:

Ouch, I planned to go there during this week but I went to my LFS and found they had some nice nano tropica plants.

So...

The other day I went to my LFS and bought 6 flame tetra and a male betta sp for my tanks.

Two new Bolivian Rams and a very nice piece of wood. I've been looking for a nice bit of wood with natural 'caves' in it since I started fishkeeping 18 months ago, finally ound one!

is it sad to be excited about a 1.5kg piece of dead tree?

To the likes of us - not at all. To our non-fish keeping friends - very.

I went to 4 fish shops yesterday (and still got home in time for United v Liverpool) in search of some new foreground plants. MA had a load of healthy looking new pots of crypts and hairgrass in so thought I'd try my luck with these again.

You and me both, I just feel like a prick though. I end up buying something small like an airstone or frozen fish food, seriousy. He must think I have a mountain of food junk in my house.

hahaha, I always feel a touch of guilt if I spend 30mins browsing a fish shop and dont buy anything. Stupid really, but I dont like the idea of the staff thinking I'm one of the weekend 'Free Zoo' mob!

lol tell me about it! I am very much a browser and I hate being one Its a very awkward moment when I leave the store empty-handed This is the sort of look I get from the store owner/worker -> <-
I am not satisfied until the car boot is filled to the brim with tons of fishy stuff!
