i would ,,, but i would be paying £400 to have loads of people ask me how big is your tank ,, your tanks too small,, they dont belong in a home aquarium ,

even though its been stuck in a 1.5x2x4 some people just feel the need to start preeching ,, and i really really really really hate that, (budgies and cockateils get a far worse deal)
so still very undecided,

I've never spent more than £100 as yet on any individual animal, but we are after a red tegu which will be more than that, and the lince cat was sorely tempting, i've lusted after them for so long...

Hmm nice... I've already got 7 pleuros, but all a lot smaller - only about 9 - 10cm at the moment. Got a pulchra pair as well, stupid fish paired up, evicted the other fish and have done sod all since (about 4 months now...)

Took a look and the Obscura are £25 each/£100 for 5 for the group on aquarist classified....sorely tempted, but i've spent to much recently on fish/herp stuff so don't think i can really, not until i've bought my fiancee a new dressing table anyway <grin> :)

edit: arg, he's got a pair of Parachanna africana up for sale as well.
 
haha yep just noticed that aswell, got to not look, as people know i will buy, wont be worth it for me, sad eh
 
A GREAT BIG OOPS I THINK lol

i have moved my smaller ones into the oscar tank now thats matured ,, arowana dont seem bothered at all ,,
its a tame one , the lfs hand fed it , showed me too ,, they tapp the water surface and he appeared,,

this lfs i went to IS a mfk'ers paradise,, i am gonna do a write up of my awsome experience i had today ,, its not too far from satansgoldfish and i think he will be there next chance he gets ,,
i feel a meet coming on,

i went to a job in stowmarket and got talking to a guy that keeps tangs,, he said if you like big fish go to this place,, so when i finished the job , off i go ,,

it looks like a little garden centre from outside,, but you walk in the doorway to a pond and tank accesory deptartment ,, follow the hanging sign that says fish, and you walk through a corridoor of windows that show every reptile you could think of in a realistic large habitat , like a zoo would display,, at the end of corridor you enter the fish room , huge cube tanks with huge gourami in , huge sturgeon, large this large that,, great display ,, the floorspace is very spacious , one side marine the other tropical a low level centre area with all the plant life you could want , i asked the guy about a purruno well there were 2 perruno at about 40 pounds if i remember , and also a 2 foot lung fish in the next tank,, when he saw i was serious about big fish i got invited to a back area , THIS IS THE BIT THAT GOT ME GRINNING FROM EAR TO EAR,,,,,he lifted a few floorboards to reveal a swimming pool full of huge black pacu, rtc,tsn, hybrids etc etc etc ,, most if not all bigger than 2 foot ,, took me by surprise but it was awsome to see big black shadows beneath your feet and wonder what the hell just swam past ,,,

I WILL DEFINITLY BE GOING BACK ,, WHO'S IN??????????
they have a cafe too

postcode is NR16

and the pacu are £50 each if interested
