Yeah, Emma, Helen & Tom are lovely people!
Jim et al, you'll have to have a holiday to the UK sometime. Very Happy
I agree, i think you guys should all come over at the same time & take a lfs tour around the UK. 8)

Thanks for the nice comments about the fish.
I got my camera out again because the nigros were out and about but as soon as i walked in with the camera they would be behind the background (You will see what i mean).
I managed one excellent shot IMO which i'm so chuffed about i put my name on it of a sinibotia pulchra. :P

Image

And a few average shots and poor shots,

Sinibotia pulchra

Image

Image

You can see in the last pic what i mean about behind the background, it's a great 5'X2'X3" cave for loaches. :P

Garra cambodgiensis

Image

Image

Acanthocobitis zonalternans

Image

I triad getting one of the unknown danios, it's the only shot i could get showing (If you look carefully) the pattern they have. They are incredibly hard to get shots of.

Image

Couldn't resist a sneaky shot of my weather loach,

Cheers
David

Now the nigros are out shoaling with the rainbows, danios & devarios, how typical! :roll:

David your unknown danios look like a undiscribed sp, the sal;e name given is the panther danio bud, thats if i'm right.
if it is i was the first to spawn them in this country anyway, but i think it was the world as no other reports came in.

They were out of the same batch of these,

http://www.petfrd.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22416

Which yeah you indicate that they are panther danios (TWO3), probably a regional variation. My males aren't quite as bright as that though, probably still settling in.
Congratz on being the first to spawn them, what method did you use?
