Had a GREAT fish day today! Got all the tanks cleaned and made a trip to see mpp - which is always fun. Mike's tanks always look so nice - and his fish are fantastic. I even got to see some of my old angel fry that he got from me all grown up.

I was on a bristlenose quest and I got some great babies. I picked up a handfull of ABN fry, a couple ABN adolescents, two gorgeous longfin ABN babies and s couple cool snails I'd not seen before. (What were they called again mpp?)

Anyway...Thanks Mike. I'm VERY happy with everything. Here are a few pics...

ABN Babies...

One of the longfin fry...

And the snails...

Sounds like you had a fun day Cool

See you realise that catfish are good Wink

Now repeat after me "Need more catfish, need more catfish" Dancing

Think you will find the snails are ramshorn

I've always liked cats - just don't "collect" them.

So now that 55 is stocked solely with:
8 ABN fry
2 Adolescent ABN
2 longfin BN
1 oto
3 cherry shrimp
2 Spixie (zebra apples)
And a bunch of ramshorn.

Clunk - the new ones I was talkin about are much larger than ramshorn...and are striped. They're the spixies - or zebra apples.

I need to post pics of my little shrimp, too.

So see? I now have a cat only tank.

Very cool! Love the long-fin fry! I was wondering if Mike had any more spixis.

No kidding - if you're collecting those little buggers, you can have mine, too -- but you're catching them!

I'll take a few spixis, Mike. I'll be back in Bellevue sometime this week.

I have more MTS than I care to even think about. I've even had a dream that the MTS were attacking me in my sleep. Shocked
