Mesonoemacheilus guentheri

Post by Emma Turner » Wed Mar 08, 2006 9:53 am

I was lucky enough to receive 4 little M. guentheri in a recent shipment! They are still a bit on the thin side (hopefully we'll soon be able to fix that :wink: ), and are now happily swimming about in the River Tank.
Here's a couple of quick photos of these little chaps, you'll have to excuse the water marks on the glass once again :oops: :

Little beauties, aren't they? :D

Beg pardon sophie. I am obviously far too influenced by "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". If you haven't seen it, watch it.

Thanks everyone, I'm thrilled to finally get hold of some of these! They are enjoying their brineshrimp and white mosquito larvae at the moment, so hopefully they will gain a bit more weight soon enough.
And by the way, you can't beat Mr Muscle Window & Glass Cleaner! I'll make sure I use some before the next set of pics.... :wink:
