Sound like a really nice setup, with pretty peculiar tank dimensions.

Yes it had to be long and shallow like a riverbed...

Would be cool.

Yay to the rafs :) So cute :)

I have one spotty and two stripes, my spotty one is getting more active now he is a year old. :)

I think they need more space then most give them credit.
I'm living my life, but not necessarily in the right order :)

Ken, just gone? Could it be one of your kids?
Yep just gone, i looked everywhere on the floor and under furniture and nothing. I doubt it was the girls, the two mollies were there's and they were pretty upset when i told them that they are gone.....till they decided that they must have gone to the sea to live with the dolphins :huh: :laugh:

First time I've seen a Raphael on vid, don't think they are available as a legal species in Australia. I've never seen one for sale in my State. Interesting fish for sure. I'm fond of cats and have settled on 3 species to complement our cichlids: Peppered Cories, Bristlenose and my favourite, the Pictus.

Loved your Oscar from that short glimpse. Must go look and see if there is a vid from you with more :)
cheers

I love your girls - that's such a good decision! From now on, that's where my fish will disappear to as well.
(I can just imagine the dolphins, their expression must be akin to Wicket spying a guppy...)

I'm fairly lucky with Lazarus being so willing to be out and about at night. Erm, and video of Wicket:

I dote on this fish, so any chance to show him off is a delight :D I'm sure you and Bruce know what I'm on about.
