Been a Bad Bad Blogger!!!

Now don't get a fright...yip I am still alive <smiles>  I have been soooo busy lately with everything that I haven't had time to keep up my beloved blog...I have about 50 articles to get posted on here but every time I plan on doing so something else pops up.   I promise to try and be a bit more regular again and take the time to keep everyone updated with fishy news in the world etc.      This is just a quick photo blog to update some folks that have been mailing asking for piccies.   I hope to get back to proper blogging soon.

The newest tank in the house at the moment:

It is the ever changing tank as since owning it (2 months) it has changed every few weeks  LOL

Some new fish since last blogging:

Microgeophagus Altispinosa 

Cleithracara maronii

Panaque Maccus 

 Apistogramma eremnopyge

Sadly my male Ramirezi died of old age or bullying from the Angels not sure which but there is a new man in town:

Dicrossus filamentosus 

There are more other new fish but many are bred - at the moment I have a spawn of 30-40 Diamond Tetra Frt which I am the most excited about...I wrote a little while ago about how they are endangered in the wild.

The Angels breed every month on cue and usually just as I want to do a water change...I swear they do it just to annoy me  LOL   I got a quick video of the last spawn they had which are now happily swimming in the tank.

What else is going on...mmmh   I am breeding Celestial Pearl Danio's, Apistogramma's and anything else that is in the mood  LOL

There are new shrimp in the house which I am also breeding although they do that all by themselves:

Blue Pearl Shrimp

And Green Babaulti's

On other news I am now Moderator on a Fish Forum which is taking up a lot of my time but I get to talk about lovely fishies all day long which is never a bad thing.

I think these are the most important updates out of the way.... will be back soon.... I promise xxxx
