    Badger's 150g Rainbowfish Tank

    Then that is a VERY impressive shrimp! I wonder if they did manage to breed in your tank? Everything I've read states that, like nerite snails, they need brackish water for the fry to develop, but I wonder if, by some incredible happenstance, your tank conditions were just right - even if it...

    Badger's 150g Rainbowfish Tank

    I was reading that Amano shrimp usually live up to 2 years - but yours must be older than that because they can't breed successfully in fresh water, so yours must have been there since you put it in, however many years ago. We've got four Amano in our tank - I LOVE them! There is one huge one...

    🐶 POTM Corylover 5 - January 2021 Pet of the Month Winner

    Congratulations! I voted for her, but it's always such a hard decision - all of these lovely pets have something that makes them irresistible! But it was her sweet little enquiring expression that swung it for me.

    Terry's sister was Audrey - the actress was Sheila Somebody (sorry - haven't checked it. I can't remember her husband's name (Barry?) but I'm pretty sure he was played by Ronald Lacey. Thelma was Bob's long-term girlfriend (and later wife).

    Whoops! I mixed you up with Colin_T, our resident Mythological Creature! Don't know how on earth I managed to do that, what with him not showing up on photographs, and on mirrors nd stuff! :lol::lol::lol:

    Gosh! You are handsome (or at we say here in t'North of England, "Not bad!"). You barely look a Creature of the Shadows at all - though if I ever meet a red werewolf with a pierced lip, I'll know it's you! :lol::lol::lol:

    I can only assume that you are on glue if you think that Johnson hasn't made this situation worse, and that Hancock has been "on the pulse". I'm out of this conversation now as I will fall out with people. Cheers, everyone.

    This particular government is a cabal of self-serving, greedy, entitled bumh*les who care nothing for how ordinary people are suffering. I don't think that ANY govt. could have been prepared for anything like this pandemic, but the mixed messages, "do as we say not as we do" attitude, and the...

    Same here - and I was talking to a lady I met dog-walking yesterday. We had a socially-distanced whinge and she said it was all she could do not to just sit and sob. I knew just what she meant.

    Johnson's funny hair is a deliberate artifice so people will look at him and say "Gosh! Isn't he a dear! Such a card!" I think the reason he is so late for his announcements is that he is spending too much time in front of the mirror trying to look like "Just William" (a storybook schoolboy...

    She deserves that and more - if they can prove she has infected someone else, particularly if she could have been responsible for a death, or long-term disability, then she should be charged with assault/ manslaughter. I just don't know what goes through some people's minds, I really don't!

    It should have started before Christmas. It CERTAINLY should have started before Monday - sending those children back to school, where they will pick up infection and take it back to vulnerable family members was just unspeakable. The response to the pandemic should have been an all-party one...

    Sending children in to schools today against medical advice, and the pleas of headteachers everywhere - FOR ONE DAY (they MUST have known they were going to lock down) - was an act of such crass stupidity and arrogance that it beggars description. They are so determined not to seem swayed by...

    If you'd asked a month ago I would have said "YES! IN A HEARTBEAT!"

    They are mean beyond words. Think I should introduce them to some of their piranha cousins. We had neons many years ago - they weren't like these.

    I love harlequins. I've just added some to my tank a week or so ago - and my bliddy neons are making their delightful little lives a misery. At first the neons, cowardly barstweards that they are, hid in the plants. Then they realised the harlequins were just cheerful little souls who wanted...

    Added fish ..think they were good choices

    My dad had blue acaras in his tank - they were pretty big (mind you - I was pretty small and these things are all relative :lol: ), but I d remember that they were very tame and would take food from your hands. I still remember the feel of rubbery fish lips against my fingers.

    It does sound good. Too good . . . This government lies through its collective teeth and I believe nothing that they say - if you recall, they promised in March/April that the vaccine would be up and running by August - I didn't believe them then, either. However, all we can do is wait and see.
