Nothing to say, Il just let the pic's speak for themselves... these are STUNNING, photos don't do them justice at all :!: More to follow once they settle in :)

Big thankies to Neil for getting these :D

There is one individual (at the front) that appears to have some redness around the mouth.... only noticed when taking the pic's zoomed in, not able to be seen just by eye... not to sure if it looks like bacterial or just a bit or damage when being transported :?:

Thanks guys :D

Any thought on the damage to the mouth on that one individual? Does it just look like a bang on the glass or a bit of infection, its starting to just look like a red blur to me each time I stare at it :?

Yep, from Pier... I spent a small fortune today :shock: theres loads of lovely sp in as well as some nice loaches, theres some lovely Nemacheilus ornatus in and Rosy loaches, possibly 2 sp, few individuals are a lot more grey in colour and have a speckled/pepper pattern as opposed to the single lateral stripe, pic's will follow once I get everyone settled, I have a lot of rearranging to do to fit everyone in :lol: :lol:

how many ornatus and rosy did you get Ashleigh, i went up yesterday and got 6 of each, i saw the albinos but knew you were coming up for them or to have a nosey. they were'nt cheap though.
my fish have settled down great, eating and investigating every nook and cranny.
btw did you get any of those young histi's?

i have a feeling thats transport damage but i would still dose them just in case.

I got 15 of the ornatus just incase David (daspricey) wants any, if not they were cheap enough so Im happy enough to keep them all :lol: and I got 10 of the little Rosy loaches just as I have never seen them as cheap as that.

The albinos are something else, I was running around trying to find them and walked straight past them :lol:

I was debating the Histies, but I don't really have anywere to put them right now if Im completly honest with myself, although there were some stunners in that lot and Im now thinking I should have got some, oh well, another visit in a few weeks time wont hurt :lol:

Nice photos. :wink:



The redness maybe just a sign of stress of being moved??

so you have'nt left many ornatus as there didnt seem to be that many.
i only took six of each and 4 histis because at the mo i've still got around 20 tanks empty until they finish upgrading the flat.

I think Neil said he ordered 40/50, I got a couple of those eels, possibly 2 different sp, might need an id on them :wink:

20 tanks empty :shock: how can you live with such a sight?!?! :lol:
