Well done Lads,

Some very good looking fish there. I always wondered quite how the logisitics of signing for them, picking them up and getting them home worked. I know that there's no magic involved but then again hand selected fish delivered from half way round the world is still quite an accomplishment without even thinking about the cost. :shock:

This will probably sound stupid but they don't look (as much as you can look at a 2D piccie) shocked /stressed!...... I mean... well they haven't wet themselves or anything.... :shock: .......no best quit whilst I'm ahead.... before... before I remove all doubt that I am depriving a village of an idiot.

Good fish, nice piccies. :D

Regards,
TicToc

Hi Ed,

there is more than one of these :shock:

I think in the past they have used them to breed but i am not 100% sure why or what they do with them when they get this big as i would imagine they are a bit of a handful to handle :D
