Look What I Found In One Of My Lfs

[coldcazzie]

I don't suppose you want to tell me where this lfs is do you

Haha, if you really want I can...

- you finally got your black n white corys and they're gorgeous looking ....we want pics asap

Haha yes, yes I did! they look so cute swimming around together. My tank light has gone so pictures are a little shoddy tbh, but I'll do my best and upload them later. I also need to put some elbow grease in to remove the sticky residue from the bottom of the tank from when I was fighting my BGA... so that I can actually see them!

They remind me of dalmatians wearing zorro masks

that's exactly what they're like! You're a genius!

Go on then. My Dad's Bradford born and bred so we might go have a nosey ourselves I like to see what other lfs's have to offer

Pet City on Tong Street

 

[Akasha72]

okay cokey ... I know where Tong Street is myself but I'll have a natter with Dad and see if he fancies a trip out to Bradford. We need to go and check my grandparents grave anyway sometime soon

Thanks and how are the new additions doing? My bronzes are a bit fruity this morning

 

[coldcazzie]

They're doing well. I put some sinking tablets in, broken up into quarters, and within 10 seconds they were all out at the front snuffing around and enjoying the tablets.

I tried to take pictures, which is proving really tough. The light has gone on the tank, so no pictures in the evenings. Tank is opposite a window so the glare monster is out in force. I closed the curtains and tried to take video using the light on my phone to light it... they all disappeared. So I gave up, opened the curtains, turned around and they were all there again

I have managed to clean the sticky residue off the tank now though, with some help from a can of WD40, so at least I can see them clearly now

I found my best pics were taken in the dark with tank light off and use the flash on the camera

 

[coldcazzie]

Well I managed to get some video while doing a wc/filter clean. I shall have a go at pictures later.

While doing the wc I discovered a body but tbh I was expecting that - it's rare to buy a batch of fish and have them all survive every time, and the last few times I've bought new fish they've all survived, so I think I was due a death! the other 10 are all happily chuntering around the tank

 

[Akasha72]

aww no!

 

[Harlequins]

Aww what a shame,

You should take it back to lfs, they might knock the price off the next batch

 

[coldcazzie]

I already disposed of it. I ain't rooting through the bin for it

 

[coldcazzie]

Pictures as promised

In the bucket:

At the side of the tank (before I remove the tape residue):

Hiding under the wood

Wow....

Just... Wow.

Does that LFS deliver to Bristol?


(Semi-serious question)

 

[coldcazzie]

Haha no, they don't do delivery.

But I would, if I ever end up with fry keep an eye out for breeding threads in about a year - they aren't old enough yet.

 

[fluttermoth]

Oh, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that they breed; they are one of the loveliest cories I've ever seen; really gorgeous; I'd have had to have had them too!

 

[JHR]

Haha no, they don't do delivery.

Keep at least 8 on hold for me in a years time then

Amazing corys I'm TOO jealous
