Found a Reedfish!

[shin0r]

Hi all

What a great weekend I've had. I've been looking for a reedfish for an absolute age; my contact at my LFS called me Saturday morning: "Hey you need to get up here, I have something for you."

So here he is, Mike, my Reedfish. He's eating bloodworms and even had a go on a pleco wafer.

I also added some great pieces of wood I'v been soaking in the bath for a couple of weeks:

Hi tattoobaz; the redmoor root looked awesome, but didn't provide enough cover for my plecs, you know how they like to hide in caves. The bogwood has some great hiding places for them. The only problem is I see the fish less often now! I think I'll use the redmoor in another tank (if I can convince the wife), or sell it.

ahh yeah fair one. it does take a while to find the perfect piece. i have spent around £250 on different pieces trying to povide both enough cover and asthetic appeal. still dont think i am there yet!!!
