Ace thread idea Suggs. I'll try and take of mine later on. Is that a Gourami you have in there Suggs? In a close up with blue spots? I was hankering for some of those but they'd eat my smaller fish. Those shark get up to about 6 inches don't they? Lovely plec to mate.

Billy you're a brave man and I envy you! Nice to see a 'Nemo' in there...bet the kids love him?!

Bloody hell Mickey, you've got some lovely fish there mate. Could you write above each picture what they are please mate? Sorry to be a pain but some there I don't recognise and like the look of. I had a plec that must have been 12 inches long once but because I had a fairly well planted/ornamented tank the fucker kept destroying it all so I gave it away to a bloke who rescues fish from people locally.

Bandit: Cheers. The 'usual' Nemo have a black band round them and are very slightly differently shaped but I think they're a bit common now and I prefer the Tomato clowns and think they look a bit nicer.

and fish deep with rod and line , used to catch a lot of pollacks , gurnards and thornback skates

[drool] [drool] Tasty! I love their little brothers too... sand dabs.
Used to catch them early mornings, from a boat in Red Wharf bay (Anglesey)

We used to take a gas stove and a pan and eat them rather fresh :D

Not a veggie, no, but not into meat all that much. Don't eat anything with bones in it (fish excepted)

I eat sausage and bacon (to keep the muslims away) I'll eat beef in stews/casseroles, Chicken and Turkey (white meat) and that's about it. Eat a lot of chicken, thinking about it and lots of veg.


Oh and did I mention ......FISH :lol: :lol: :lol: 8)
