Hello,

I thought I would put some pics up of my coldwater tank to show you lovely fishy peeps.

Not only tropical are great!! :D

The tank is 35UK/41US gallons ad is 4ft x 1ft x 1.5ft, the fish are in my signature. :wub:

Here's a picture of the whole tank:

Here's a pic of the middle of the tank, just so you get an idea of their environment. I wish they would stop moving!!

Now then,

Here's my gorgeous Kentaro the weather loach. He is my favourite of all my fishys! Even my tropicals :eek: ;)

So as my favourite, he gets to appear twice in the photo extravaganza!!

Btw, there isn't a heater in the tank. The above pic is from when it was a tropical tank and Kentaro was in with them for a while.

Here's another of him chilling out! All he ever does!

I am a very loachy and catfishy kind of girl and so of course I am going to have some of the next little guys.

Hillstream Loaches!!!

They have become very sociable recently and can often be seen (and photographed ;) ) out and about.

This one is of the hillstrea showing it's chameleon like qualities and blending into this plant pot.
