it should do.
try clicking the start button
then all programs
then accessories
then system tools
then click on characture map
(alternativly use your comps search for characture map)
that should bring up a box with lots of other charactures including the £ sign

 

[jollysue]

OK I'll mess with it in my morning. Well it will be late morning now--in about eight hours.

The new babies:


In the hang on ready to acclimate while I try to figure out what I got

So cute

So, what am I?

 

[madattiver]

nice looking sterbai you got there

 

[Teelie]

Definitely sterbai or some very good imposters. I don't know of any other cories with that trademark orange tinge.

 

[jollysue]

Actually according to Inchworm, as I understand it, haraldschultzi have the orange fins, and they look almost exactly alike, except the haraldschultzis reverse the black/white thing, and the sterbai are about an inch smaller.

Anyway thanks! they are real cuties. They look awesome against the black sand and with the albino longfin pepper babies.

I will have to watch for the water quality now though. The tank is very stocked.

 

[Teelie]

True, always one in the bunch but the sterbai are more stub-nosed.

Haraldschultzi

 

[Donkster]

Definately Sterbai. I paid £7.50 each for mine. Cute little things. Here's one I took earlier

 

[jollysue]

Yeah thanks Teelie and Donkster, that seems to be the consensus=Sterbai. I am glad. I prefer the smaller breeds. I can have more!

Oh yeah and they have more chance of spawning!

I tried to get some pics of them in the tank with the brochis splendens, the long fin albino peppers and the harlequin Rasaboras, but everyone was moving too fast today. I'll get them at feeding time soon.

 

[Barracuda518]

Those are some nice additions. I was told to get some full grown ones here would cost me $20 a piece

 

[jollysue]

Barracuda, that's why I have just walked on by whenever someone tried to show these or haraldschultzi or any of the pricier cories to me. I got 9 at $9 apiece. But really it has cost me that to get fish shipped to me. Some of the rare fish are getting really high on AB. And if it is because they are rare, the cost will drop when they start tank breeding them, but these will probably maintain their value by demand.
