Please suggest other good threads or photos buried inside other threads for the inclusion in this index. Indexing would help in preserving good material which otherwise may "scroll off".

You're turning American, Graeme! Shouldn't that be 'Members Favo
urites'??!
Yes, I think this 'pointers' sticky is a good idea.

OK, if you like this, here is how it can work: post ADD requests at the end of this thread to what you think is worth indexing and I'll merge them into the top post, which will be the index, and before long we may have a useful resource.

I think it would be good to keep some of the natural habitat pics either here or as another sticky. The trouble is, we could end up with too many stickies at this rate!
There was a good thread here by Nonn, on
Botia kubotai in it's natural habitat, for example:

IMHO, a single index page
on species and try to keep the index as terse as possible. Possibly another index on diseases.
Added. I also added your Yoyotai loach, he is one of a kind and should not be forgotten. Obviously, your large tank/Margie should be indexed too, but your pictures were in different threads, maybe you can say which one.

This
Sewellia lineolata fight sequence might be worth adding:

All in. Actually, it is also possible to link to a particular post in a thread, I've indexed Graeme's Aborichthys photos that were buried inside another thread.

This is evolving into an index of Graeme's fish. Oh well.

I wonder if i should just start a topic and post all possible pictures of my loaches.
Hmmm...need some time to develop this.
