    Hello Gibbs & Ducky, aren't you both just beautiful!

    Try dim all the lights and close the curtains to cut out the glare. I struggle to take pics of my tanks too.

    Not really my sort of thing.
    But I can see why some people like them.

    Stopped at a fish shop yesterday evening. Not one of my regular places as they have limited stock, and not very inspiring.
    But they did have this Flowerhorn.

    Was £70 (R1,300 approx)
    How is that price wise?

    Only saw this now, apologies for the really late response.... I paid around about the same I believe I paid 1350 and 1500 per fish. Don't know how useful the reply is now
