Are you finding them to be quite shy then? All of mine rush up to the front of the tank just about every time I walk past...

very nice shot matey, they get better still just give them a couple of months then compare the two pics, you'll see a vast difference.

Bah I think it was about time you gave someone else a chance to clear out her stock for a change :P

Guess what Graeme, there were actually more than 20 left in stock after Dave & Lee and Ashleigh purchased theirs, that somehow went unnoticed. :shock: I only spotted them yesterday evening, I think they must have been quite small at the time of the meet, but now they are a nice size. And sorry to disappoint, but I took them all home with me this evening! I thought I'll treat myself for a change. But! The good news is, a new batch arrived yesterday, so there should be plenty available next time you're down this way. :wink:
