My new sailfin, Malcolm.

Malcolm is 8 years old, he has had one owner from birth, he's actually about 10 inches long. I bought him from that ebay ad and he was delivered on Friday.

Malcolm lets go of the glass and floats on his back so he can eat fish flake when you sprinkle it on top.....he's very cool. Happy birthday me :)

This is Nessie, she's a common plec, she and Malc are going in the 6ft soon as it's ready, along with the other tiny plecs (I have 3 more under 3 inches, Scott, Bonnie and Clyde)

Hi, here are a couple of pics of Buster. These are taken in his old tank, I don't have any recent pics of him in his new tank. He is a Common Pleco and he is about 3" bigger now than in the pics. He is now 11" :)
