    People say they're dull, pop them under a 10000k light and see how their colour changes!

    I have them in a pond outside, I started with 5 and now about 50. They really are stunning fish and VERY easy to keep.

    @Franna We may have bumped into each other! Unfortunately, all the fish I was interested in are still under quarantine, will just have to learn to be more patient. I'm also a White Cloud fan.

    I bought a male bristlenose there a good couple of months ago. He and my female fell deeply in love and just had their 3rd spawn in 4 weeks!! Now I'm sitting with 150+ little wrigglers.

    joburg and pretoria. i cant travel to pta everyday
    did anyone see if they had ottos there? i'm currently running what feels like an algae farm in my nano and suspect it would benefit from an oto or two to help me keep things under control. i'm dosing excel daily at about 1ml in two seperate doses and i've reduced the lighting period to no avail. since im no longer in pta i cant pop round everyweek after the shipments get in to see what goodies came in. alas an integrel part of my week now lost lol.

    I popped in at Pet Stop last week and I was very pleasantly surprised. They have an awesome range of fish in the few tanks that they have. I've been to pet shops with lots more tanks, but they stock common fish, nothing like they keep at Pet Stop. Didi took time to chat to me and show me some of the more exquisite marine fish that they have in stock. I LOVE the Ribbon Eel, what a stunning fish I just wish it was fresh water...

    I bought 2 crown Betta girls from them. The girls are healthy and happy and have bottomless pits instead of stomaches, but they seem to like all types of food, which is great. I'm just really sorry that I didn't have enough money to buy one of the imported Crown Bettas that they had on offer, gee they really are stunning, much better in real life than in pics. I was impressed to see the nice variety of Corys as well as one of the L catfish and other types of catfish too. I was especially excited to see that they had some really beautiful Celebes Rainbows, but in all my time spent talking to Didi and meeting Moolis I forgot to go back and get them. I suppose that means that I will have to make another trip out there to see what they have on offer.... ;D

    Great shop @Moolis, but please put up better signs showing where you guys are situated in the shopping centre, I nearly didn't get to see you guys.
