no i didnt sorry.

he was curled up a bit, but was very settled bless him

i had a black rock with algae on in there, and overnight its developed clean white patches!

woke up to find him dangling from the filter, so he must be happy!

[norbie]

thankyou.

if he moves from behind the air wall, i will try and get a photo!

 

[fatboybaby]

is he in your 20 gallon or a bigger tank? cos he sounds really big!

 

[norbie]

He is indeed.

It's probably not the ideal tank size for him, but I've 'rescued' him from an 8 gallon where he's lived all his life, so this should be much better for him.

 

[fatboybaby]

eek, an 8 gallon!

yep, much better then! i am just sad as i felt i had to rehome my sailfin from my 29 gallon. i think he is still in the petshop too waiting for a new home

 

[norbie]

yeah it's the best he can have at the moment, if he doesn't do very well then he will have to go off to a shop

before he didnt have a current, or any air at all, so i think he's loving it at the moment!
